And that is choice E. The rest of you post reminds me of when
YOUR kids? YOUR kids not 'towing the mark'? How could YOU beget such unworthy brains?
thought they had not done well on a test and started
Um..did you ever bother to actually look at the test to judge for yourself if MAYBE your kids might be right? Seee.. prejudiced against your own kids. Mean you.
Don't worry, you got the right
Oh, so you just proved that the SSWV(TM), which you yourself invented, is basically flawed to begin with, eh?
How did Jack Welche's personal relationship with Suzzie Wetalauf wreck his marriage and get GE into a lot of bad PR? I'd say it wasn't totally irrelevant. Jack W got took to the cleaners, too.

Yeah, all the time. Showed what dumbheads the test authors were. Best philosophy: pick the least stupid answer. In fact, usually they are all wrong, anyway (just like CEOs).
Well.... hey, someone is knocking at my door....

hey... nobody at the door...
(opening envelope, its got two pieces of paper in it)
One paper says: "You ought to leak the information on the other paper and see what happens"
Second paper says: "Both CEOs are bad guys, period"

I could tell you a story too. Short version: I consulted with two companies at the same time they consulted with each other. I then became VP of R&D of one, then less than a year later I resigned (which the CEO was very unhappy about, but I was happy), then later, the other company sued my former company, and some time later, my former company counter-sued the other. Last time I heard (I can give URLs, too), first case went to court and got 13 million from my former company. My former company is-was (I'm staying light-years away from both of them) sueing the other for $40 mill, and I don't know, don't care, etc.
I was subpoenaed, too, but I also made some money, too, in the process (about $600). As part of the negotiations for the subpoena, they sent me a copy of the long court order and after reading the nitty gritty poo, I learned that there were a number of things "they" didn't tell me. But, the subpoenaing lawfirm actually gave me the name and phone numbers of the defendant's law firm, and I called them, and they talked with me, too. Its a story that could fill a chapter in one of those best sellers scandal books you read about. One thing useful to me was learning, by the stumble-trip-fall-get-back-up method, is how to talk with hostile lawyers, how to bluff them, and the word "negotiate" does not mean "OK, I'll do anything you ask, anytime you ask, anyway you ask."
