Leslie Green asks:
"The History of Art in the Dark Ages is an epically boring subject and too many students pass by simply answering the 100 multiple choice exam questions randomly. This year the marking scheme has been changed so that of the 4 possible answers, the correct answer scores one point, two wrong answers score 0, but the remaining stupid answer scores minus two points.

What is the optimum strategy for a student who is good at Mathematics, but not Art History?"
