What should be done if a test item is found to have a high difficulty index (close to 1.0) and a low discrimination index?

A) Retain the item as it is ideal.
B) Discard or revise the item as it is too easy.
C) Convert it to an essay question.
D) Use it for diagnostic assessment only.

Correct Answer: B) Discard or revise the item as it is too easy.

A P-value near 1.0 means almost everyone got it right (too easy), making it unable to discriminate between high and low achievers (low D). Such items waste time and should be revised or removed.
