How is hardest determined?
Is it just raw % of test takers who get the answer wrong?
If so is there a certain number of attempts required on the question for it to make it in the list? I imagine a question with one wrong answer and no right answers [0% correct responses] wouldn't immediately appear at the top of the list.
Additionally does it factor in time taken on average before responding into difficulty?
Thanks for any insights on this.
