The Risk Matrix usually shows that combo as High risk.

Totally agree, Medium makes sense here!

Wait, major impact with very low probability? Seems off.
SH

I think it's Low risk, honestly.

It's definitely Medium risk based on that matrix.

I’m leaning towards medium risk, but I could see how some might argue for high risk given the major impact.

This is tricky! I feel like major impact usually pushes the risk up, but very low probability might keep it lower.

I remember a practice question where low probability and high impact led to a medium risk level, but I'm not entirely sure.

I think if the probability is very low, the risk level might not be that high, but major impact could change things.

I've got this! The key is to find where "very low" probability and "major" impact intersect in the Risk Matrix. That will give me the risk level.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to carefully review the Risk Matrix and make sure I understand how to interpret the probability and impact levels.

Okay, let me think this through. If the probability is very low but the impact is major, that should point me to the right answer in the matrix.

Hmm, this seems straightforward. I'll need to refer to the Risk Matrix table to determine the risk level based on the given probability and impact.

I'd say the risk level is 'Extremely low' - so low it's not even on the matrix. Like the chances of me acing this exam.

C) Low

D) Medium, definitely. It's the perfect middle ground between high and low risk. Goldilocks would approve.

I'm stumped. Should I go with my gut or just guess randomly? Decisions, decisions...

I agree, let's trust the Risk Matrix table and go with B) Extreme.
RO

Let's go with B) Extreme, it seems like the safest option.
TE

I'm not sure, maybe we should refer to the Risk Matrix table.
JA

I think it's B) Extreme.
SH

I'm going with B) Extreme. That major impact is no joke, even if the chances are slim. Better safe than sorry!
MA
Mauricio

I think Extreme is the right choice here, can't risk a major impact.
ED
Edgar

I agree, better to be prepared for the worst case scenario.
TA

Hmm, I think the answer should be C) Low. After all, if the probability is very low, the risk can't be that high, right?
BE
Bea

I see your point, Vincenza. It makes sense that the risk level would be extreme in this scenario.
VI
Vincenza

I disagree, I believe it will be extreme because the impact is major.
CA
Cathrine

I think the risk level will be high.
