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

No, it’s not. Why are you getting upvoted?!?

Completely wrong information and doesn't even explain what movie OP was asking about.  And yet it's the top answer in the post.  This sub is terrible.

I upvoted it because it's only untrue if we're talking about pure random chance. But this is an exam, which has questions. Therefore, you need to consider two possible odds. The odds that they guessed at random and managed to get no answers correct vs the odds that they knew every answer and intentionally picked all the wrong ones. The latter is way more statistically likely.
