What are the three levels of proficiency for Knowledge?

• A. Knowledge, Analysis, Synthesis
• B. Knowledge, Application, Synthesis
• C. Knowledge, Application, Evaluation
• D. Knowledge, Practice, Synthesis

Answer: (B)

This question tests how knowledge is applied across three progression stages: you recall and understand information (knowledge), you use that information in real tasks (application), and you combine elements to create or redesign something new (synthesis). The sequence Knowledge, Application, Synthesis fits this flow, moving from remembering and understanding to practical use and then to creating or integrating solutions. In practice, you might memorize a procedure, demonstrate it on a task, and then design a plan or modify the procedure to fit a new situation. The other options veer into different cognitive modes (like analysis or evaluation) or include terms not aligned with this three-stage framework.
