I hear you, but they're just doing what they're told and they're not being told properly. So the fault doesn't lie with them but with their instructors and I realize that's not really a human.

I have had a few reach out to me after i left them answers. It was a requirement to post them here in AR and not just look up the answers. My thouht if i was a teacher the lesson would also be how to interact with other agents.  In some cases how not to

I just skip them.

searching is a subjective dynamic...

I agree with Bob Crane 

They are not redundant questions for the one asking.

However, there are many fragile personalities who 'go off' when they feel to be imposed upon.

The real question should be 'What should be done to those who reveal themselves so incredibly intolerant of life's process and incapable of unwilling to avoid walking into a situation they know they are not going to like?"

I try to think about these students and their homework assignments as little as possible. I have little confidence they are learning much of anything and feel they are just going through the motions.

Both a good answer and a snotty comment get the person 15 points, best to leave a nice comment.

It's a ridiculous requirement of their instructor (if you want to call him/her an instructor)! I can't imagine taking a course where an instructor doesn't give us the information we need but, chooses to have the students be thrown to the wolves. I would get my money back so fast the instructor's head would spin!

Wanda Kubat-Nerdin - Wanda Can! wouldn't it be super cool if they could ask an INSTRUCTOR!

Ps Thanks for the points 

I usually skip those questions.

My response: 

I wish you all the best with your real estate studies.

For the most part, I try to provide the courtesy of an answer to what seem to be questions required of students. AR does not need to be a hostile environment for newbies especially those who are directed here by their instructors.

I think AR should ban or charge agent professor (and share the profits with us).

Any answer works in this points driven feature.

Is that one school that is filling up the pipeline? 

Just pressure from their instructor.  So sad.

Google is a source, sometimes not a good one!

I thought points for A&Q are to be canceled?
