It is relatively easier to prepare and
administer a six-questions extended response essay test than to prepare and
administer a comparable 60 item multiple choice test items.
·
It is the only means that can assess an
examinee’s ability to organize and present his ideas in a logical and coherent
fashion and in effective style.
·
It can be successfully employed for
practically all school subjects.
·
Some of the objectives such as ability to organize idea effectively
ability to criticize or justify a statement, ability to criticize or justify a
statement, ability to interpret etc. can be measured by this type of test.
·
Logical thinking and critical reasoning,
systematic presentation etc. can be best developed by this type of test.
·
Its helps encourage good study habits
such as making outlines and summaries.
·
The student can show their initiative,
the originality of their thought and the fertility of their imagination, as
they are permitted freedom of response.
·
The response of the students need not be
completely right or wrong. All degrees of comprehensiveness and accuracy are
possible.
·
It largely eliminates guessing.
