Correct answer is B. Medians should come from the training data set. This is addressed in SAS' course video Predictive Modeling Using Logistic Regression (15.1) Lesson 4.2 - "...So in the validation data set, missing values should be replaced with the medians from the training data set. " Furthermore, in the quiz at the end of the SAS lesson, one question states a particular answer was incorrect because "Answer b is incorrect because the missing values in the validation data set need to be replaced with the medians from the training data set." Please fix this for others.
