Bloom's Taxonomy Distribution

Level Actual Target Deviation
Remember 8% 15% -7% ⚠️
Understand 42% 30% +12% ⚠️
Apply 14% 20% -6% ✓
Analyze 20% 20% 0% ✓
Evaluate 14% 10% +4% ✓
Create 2% 5% -3% ✓

Overall Bloom's Score: 20/25

The distribution slightly over-represents Understand level questions while under-representing Remember level. This reflects the course's emphasis on conceptual understanding over pure memorization, which is appropriate for a college-level course.
