A multiple-choice quiz has 15 questions, each with 4 possible answers of which only 1 is the correct answer. Suppose a student has been absent for the past meetings and has no idea what the quiz is all about. The student simply uses a randomization mechanism (e.g. using eeny, meeny miny, mo) in answering each item. What is the probability that the student will get at least 3 correc
