Math test developers should get an "F"

NEW YORK (AP) - April 25, 2012

New York state education officials admit there are errors on two standardized math tests.

The state's third- through eighth-graders have three days of math exams this week.

One question on the fourth grade test has two right answers.

There's one on the test for eighth-graders that doesn't have a correct answer.

Education Department officials say the goofs are typos and the questions won't count.

But critics of standardized testing say the developers should get an "F'' -- just a like a student who flunks.
