3. Types of exam and reagents

The topics and subtopics referred to in this Guide will be evaluated through an exam composed of multiple
choice items.
As a reminder, it is important to note that multiple choice items are those that have a question or
statement and, based on it, the examinee must identify which option they consider represents the correct
answer.
The parts that make up a multiple choice item are two:
- Direct questioning.- It is integrated with previously structured statements or questions on a specific topic
that you wish to explore.
- Problem resolution.- A problematic situation is presented in a certain context with sufficient information,
which must be selected and organized, to apply appropriate procedures for its resolution.
- Hierarchy or ordering.- A list of elements is presented that the examinee must locate according to a
specific criterion or elements are requested to be stated in accordance with a specific phase or procedure.
- Sentence completion.- It is presented in the form of statements in which one or more key words are
omitted, in the middle or at the end of the sentence, presenting in the options the words to be placed at the
base of the item.

- Relationship of columns or correspondence.- The structure of these reagents are two lists of elements
that can be words, symbols, numbers, phrases or sentences.
- Identification of graphs or diagrams.- At the base of the reagent, a specific problem or situation is
presented, from which the student has to respond in order to locate the graph or diagram in accordance
with the initial approach.
- Reading comprehension.- At the base of the reagent, a text or paragraph is presented from which one
or several questions emerge based exclusively on its content, which must be associated with the
understanding and identification of aspects inherent to it.
- Numerical series or patterns.- A succession of numbers is presented, either under the same or different
format (¼, 12, 2.5, etc.), which constantly maintain a pattern or relationship with each other.

similar or opposite content, depending on what is indicated in the base.
