Explanation:

- Proximity Test: This evaluates how close the defendant's actions were to completing the crime. Closer actions indicate a stronger case for attempting the offense.

- Impossibility Test: This considers whether the crime was impossible to complete due to factual or legal reasons. If it was impossible, it might not be considered an attempt.

- Locus Standi Test: This is generally related to the right to bring a case to court, not to the determination of an attempted crime.

- Social Danger Test: This assesses whether the act posed a real threat to society, making it worthy of being categorized as an attempt.

Correct Answer: Option 3: Locus Standi Test
