There is an error in this test question 4 of TOEIC practice test (Test # TOEIC/W225). In view of the correct answer, “midday”, the correct time should read “12 p.m.” rather than “12 a.m.”, which is midnight. Could you please verify this matter?
Thank you for providing a link (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12-hour_cl … d_midnight) that clarifies the confusion of A.M. and P.M. In addition to that link, I would like to add the definition of p.m. found under TOEIC preparation test Test # TOEIC/M12.
Here is an excerpt from the Meaning of p.m.:
8. Meaning of p.m. (abbreviation, acronym)
post meridiem (pm, P.M., PM)

Meaning of C.T.O., N/A, C.V., PR, Ph.D., C.C.O., A.O.B., p.m., C.I.O., ASAP
