Sample question on CR test, for all you ol' timers.

[JTip]

Took the CR test last week, missed by 8 questions...... I will ace it the next time.... Anywho, here is a sample question which may be simple or complex. If you took your test back in the 20th century, give it a shot.

A lot, 100' x 120', which has a 10ft setback on all sides, is how many acres?

.11

.18

.27

.55

I stared at this one for a good 5 minutes.

I hope I see that one on the exam!

 

[Dennis J. Black ASA IFAS]

If that is the exact question the answer is .2755 acres


100 x120 = 12,000 / 43560

The setbacks are a distractor.

 

[Corner Lot]

80 x 100 = 8000

 

[Tom Woolford]

Actually 0.275482

(Couldn't resist)

 

[Tom Woolford]

When you take exams, I always tell my students to read the question thoroughly, then read it again. The setbacks don't have a thing to do with square footage.

I teach the Definition of an Appraisal - First

Then I teach 43,560 sq ft in an acre.

These two questions are on each quiz and test throughout the semester and believe it or not there are a few who never get them right!
