Re: Achilles or Agememnon?
Alexandra,
You are correct! Unfortunately,
that slipped by us; I am not sure how. When the exam is graded, we will be
accepting both answers as correct answers.
Thanks so much and I do hope you
enjoyed the exam.

Hello Ms. Fiegel,
My name is Alexandra Backlund and yesterday
I participated in the National Mythology Exam. After taking the test and turning
it in, my friends and I debated about one problem. The problem that had two
possible answers, or so I think. I vaguely remember the question wording, but I
am close to positive it questioned: Who was Odysseus inquired about? There were
two answers that could have been it: Achilles' son and/or Agamemnon's son. Can
you clarify the question or why the answer would favor one, when the question
clearly asks for who he was inquired about?
Thank You,
Alexandra
