I refuse to use test my knowledge utilizing a tool that contains so many spelling errors.

FYI it was typed quickly. It's a harmless test that does not have an exact answer. Majority of the answers can be found in your policies and procedures which varies in every facility. I don't expect you to post your answers on the site but if you have no clue what the answers are then something is wrong.
