32 49 57 58 61
62 64 66 67 67
68 69 71 72 72
74 76 80 82 83

- Twenty Level I CFA candidates in a study group took a practice exam and want to determine the distribution of their scores. When they grade their exams they discover that one of them skipped an ethics question and subsequently filled in the rest of his answers in the wrong places, leaving him with a much lower score than the rest of the group. If they include this candidate's score, their distribution will most likely:
