Question with no right answer

So I had a test yesterday and there was a question about rape on it. I'm not sure of the exact words but I'll try my best

A rape victim came in, the nurse should.....

A. take pictures with a disposable camera

d. undress on the cloth to be included in the rape kit for evidence.

Now when i first looked at it I thought D was the right answer. Then I read it again and said wait a minture this is saying THE NURSE should undress on the cloth.So i said this can't be right they're trying to trick us. Then I decided to pick answer A. Of course the answer was D. I agrued with the teacher saying how can that be the right answer? When I look at this question there is no right answers. I said that i just picked any answer because they were all wrong. Because a is obviously wrong too. She said well i'll look at it but i have a feeling that your classmates picked D. And that pisses me off that i would miss that question because of the spelling error. Should I argue this?? I ended up wtih an 84 i believe. And an 85 is the highest C. I passed and got a good grade but this question really bothers me.

What are your thoughts/opinions on this?

wow- that would be awesome. We are not allowed to get up during a test and talk to proctors...

We are given a sheet that we can fill out during the exam with problems/challenges to any of the questions. You turn it in before you leave the exam room.

About the only time you can talk to the proctor is if your computer fails (all of our exams are done in web.ct)

I agree with some of the others - I would ask the instructor during the test to clarify the question/responses.
