Accuracy of study materials? Or am I this bad?

Yet another question in a Cisco book has be really questioning the answer...

Question is based on a route-map example which is:

access-list 39 permit 192.168.24.0 0.0.3.255
access-list 32 permit 192.168.26.0 0.0.0.255
route-map test permit 10
match ip address 39
match ip address 32
set ip local preference 150
route-map test permit 20
match ip address 39 32
set ip local preference 200

Question: What will the local preference be set to for 192.168.25.0/24?

Choices:
A 200
B 150
C 0
D 100

My thought process: 192.168.25.0/24 is included in access-list 39, but not 32. For the preference to be set to 150 it would have to match both 39 and 32 - since it doesn't, and also because it matches ONE of the criteria for the match in section 20 that the preference will be set to 200.

Book states that the local preference would be set to 150, but I don't see the logic...?

    It could be a typo. I'll go with 200 as well.

    In the official Errata for this book, answer C is reinforced. Makes the book hard to trust. I hate spending time trying to figure out if the material is wrong, or if I am!

    Thanks for your reply!

    If this came from the BSCI official certification guide, first I would say throw the book in the trash :D. If thats not an option, then make sure you print out the entire errata because that book is riddled with errors. The coverage is severely lacking for the BSCI, unless you have pretty extensive experience in my opinion.

    Thanks for your info! Yes, it's the official BSCI book. I'm pretty unhappy with the quality of it. There are numerous other errors that are not listed in the Erratta as well... Before I pull more of my hair out I may hit you fine folks up for some more advice. Less than a week to go before I write the BSCI!
    Thanks!
