Matrix Multiple Choice
In a matrix multiple response, you'll have a grid—a matrix—where you'll pick just ONE option in each row. Don't skip any—each row must have an item selected. There will be at least 4 rows, and there could be up to 10. And remember, you can't move on until you've responded to every row.
Scoring Rule :

Matrix Multiple Response
In a matrix multiple response, brace yourself for a matrix where some rows might have multiple correct answers.

Ensure each column has at least one response option selected before moving on!
Scoring Rule :

Multiple Response - Select All That Apply
Multiple Response - Select All That Apply items are like the SATA questions you're familiar with, but with more options and a chance for partial credit. You can choose as many or as few responses as you please. There might be just one correct answer, several, or even all options could be correct! Look for at least 5 options, but at most 10.
Scoring Rule :
+/-
Multiple Response Select N
In a Multiple Response - Select N item, a specific number of responses is mentioned in the question. That number is exactly how many responses you'll need to choose—no more, no less!
Scoring Rule :
0/1
Multiple Response Grouping
In a multiple response grouping item, you'll encounter sets of items grouped together. Your task is to select which responses apply to each group. Expect at least 2 and up to 5 groupings, each containing 2-4 options. Remember, you must pick at least one option from each grouping, but you can choose more!
Scoring Rule :

Highlight Text
In a highlight text item, you will be presented with a paragraph and asked to pick out the important bits of information from the text. As you move your mouse over the text, the options will appear highlighted. You can select up to 10 options and change your selections until you're satisfied with your choices.
Scoring Rule :
+/-
Highlight Table
In a highlight text item, you'll see a table. Move your mouse over the various items and pick out the crucial parts from the table. You will be able to choose anywhere from 1 to 10 options and can select and unselect options until you're confident you've got the right combination.
Scoring Rule :
+/-
Bowtie
Imagine a bowtie question like a drag-and-drop puzzle. Inside, you'll see 5 spots for 5 correct answers. Your mission? Drag and drop: the correct client condition in the middle, two actions to take on the left side, and two parameters to monitor on the right side.
