Matching Questions


Matching question types are common for terminology, dates, and other facts. Each answer, comprised of both parts of a correct match, must be enumerated by letters A-T and followed by a period [ . ] or a right parenthesis [ ) ]. The two parts of the match must be separated by an equal [ = ] symbol on the same line.
