Data Analysis - Spreadsheet Basics Final quiz #of Fish question

On the final quiz there is a multiple choice question that asks what type of fish had the highest numbers and it doesn't seem to offer the type of fish that had the highest in the choices, I picked the second highest, and I passed, but it looked like Shad was the highest number. Can someone look into this?

Hi All, I apologize for that. We have fixed the quiz question because it caused a little confusion clearly, thanks for flagging.

I liked my rephrased question better, but it's completely clear now this way.
So does Mary get the "Exterminator" badge? :beetle:

I don' think this qualifies as a bug fix...but I do sincerely appreciate the feedback!

Really? I would have expected that any report that causes the course content to be changed would qualify.

I think it's a matter of how you interpret the question.

I agree with you, none of the choices had the very highest total number. But I interpreted the question to mean, "Which of the types of fish shown below had the highest number of fish pass through the dam?"

As Jon said, you could report this as a bug to Support and if they agree and change the question wording you should get "a special Exterminator badge".

If it's an issue with the quiz/code challenge, it may be best to email support - help@teamtreehouse.com. If it really is an issue, they'll give you a special badge! :)

Thanks everyone for the input - sounds like they are going to review and fix this question, the Code Challenge team member wrote back they were also confused about this question when they took the course, so it sounds like it needed clarifying or re-worded, and they will update.
