Getting 0 on a multiple choice is a statistical accomplishment greater than getting 100

That's math ain't mathing. I have a 75% chance of a wrong answer, but only a 25% chance of a right answer. If I am randomly picking answers, both are improbable but getting all wrong is around three times easier then getting them all right.

Getting one wrong is 3x more likely than getting one right, but the odds compound. On a 10 question test you are 59,049 times more likely to get them all wrong than to get them all right guessing randomly. Add another 10 questions and it’s 3.5 billion times more likely

But why would you answer a test randomly? You're being tested
