  Format Compliance: 100%

  - All explanations start with "The correct answer is [LETTER]."

  Critical Issue Identified

  Answer Distribution Imbalance:
  - B is correct 60% of the time (78/130) - should be ~25%
  - A and D are each correct only 4.6% (6/130 each)
  - This pattern could allow students to game the quiz

  Recommendation: Before deploying to students, redistribute correct answers to achieve roughly 25% for each option. This can be
  done by reassigning which option is correct in existing questions without rewriting content.
