Test is bunk.

Acts and Omissions

Your score of 50% is a little lower than the average score of 60% in this category.

This suggests that the distinction between acting and omitting to act is sometimes a relevant factor in your moral thinking.

Omission vs Commission is always a factor in my moral calculus. I think you are still in the wrong if you kill one person in order to save 10.
