Key

Correct (Knew Info) - You really knew the content and therefore you were confident in selecting the right answer.

Correct (Guessed) - You should review the content of these questions and learn why the right answer was right and the wrong answers were wrong.

Change answer (right-wrong or wrong -wrong) - What kind of questions were you asking yourself when you changed your answer? Did you over-analyze the question and/or answers? A general rule of thumb is to Never change your answers, unless you are close to 100% sure of the right answer. Again, review why the right answer is right and the wrong answers are wrong.
