What type of assessment did you encounter most often while you were taught mathematics throughout your school years?

During most of my schooling from K - 12, I remember a lot of multiple choice questions.

I also remember having to work out a problem and showing the steps as to how I got the answers.

The show the steps were more challenging, but in the end these types of questions helped me to understand where I made the mistakes. A lot of times it was error in adding or just writing the numbers down in the wrong place.

Teachers who use these types of working out a problem can identify what steps I had a hard time understanding and can later help me by showing me how to work it out.

The multiple choices was always a 50/50 chance of getting it right when i didn't know or understand the questions. These types of questions did not help me out. Although, I know it saved the teachers a lot of time in correcting the test.

I'm not keen on multiple choice when it comes to math.
