Hello, everyone, and Happy New Year. I have been working doggedly for the past few months to collate all the SC questions—870 in sum—that have appeared in official guides past and present and put them in one spreadsheet. Where the source was lacking in specificity—e.g., "1000 Series," "Official Guide [Pre-2000]," or, simply, "Official Guide"—I made a note. I also categorized (tagged) every question based on my own observations while I was practicing. Yes, I attempted each question, sometimes first thing in the morning, sometimes after a long day of work. (I tended to get sloppier in those later sessions, but excuses, excuses...) In case you are curious, or if you are the competitive type, the following are my stats. If you want to take up a challenge and beat the Expert, by all means, have a go. I would like to read about your experience, maybe down below or in a debrief. (I simply worked from top to bottom, but the beauty of a spreadsheet lies in its customizability.)
- Easy/Low: 392/396 (99.0% accuracy), average 0:35/question
- Medium: 277/287 (96.5% accuracy), average 0:48/question
- Hard: 173/187 (92.5% accuracy), average 0:57/question
- Longest streak on spreadsheet: 143 questions
- Second longest streak: 139 questions
I created the spreadsheet as a Google Sheet, but I am uploading it as an Excel sheet. There is nothing fancy or automated. I not only lack the technical knowhow, I also find it useful to spend a little extra time adding notes or comments on questions, whether I get them correct or not.
As always, good luck with your studies.
