Question #: 9: It is correct to say I go out at night rarely.
User's answer: False
Correct answer: True

I answer "False", but according to this it was correct to say.....but I though you have to place rarely before "go".

Who said or in what source did you read that it was correct?

It might be considered technically correct, but it is an awkward construction. You could say "I go out at night occasionally" or "I go out at night often," and both would be correct, so I suppose you could put "rarely" there too. It doesn't sound right, but as far as I can tell it could be correct to put the adjective at the end of the sentence.

You have a typo there. "Rarely" is an adverb.

"Technically" (to use your term) It isn't correct. The adverb of frequency, "rarely", should in this example, precede
the verb as "I rarely go out at night".

It may go at the end only rarely, but it's fine when it does. It is not incorrect in BrE.
