ASubjectivity ✓ Correct
BObjectivity
CReliability
DValidity
Correct answer: (A) Subjectivity — Subjectivity is not a characteristic of a good question paper, so it is the answer.
Explanation
★Subjectivity is not a characteristic of a good question paper, so it is the answer.
★A good question paper should judge every student by the same fair standard, which requires it to be free of the examiner's personal bias.
★Subjectivity means marks depend on the examiner's personal opinion, which makes the test unfair and inconsistent.
★Objectivity is desirable because it ensures the same answer earns the same marks regardless of who evaluates it.
★Reliability is desirable because a good paper gives consistent results when used again under similar conditions.
★Validity is desirable because a good paper actually measures what it is meant to measure, so only subjectivity is the unwanted trait.
