From your fingertips:

b. Part 1 exam score 97 - 5 pts., 92 – 4 pts., 87 – 3 pts., 84 – 2 pts, 80 – 1 pts.

What part of giving someone the answers doesn't make a difference? It seems to me that a couple of points are on the line.

Again, going over the test at a function is different from getting the answer key. Unless, you just sit there and right down the answers withour participating in the discussion, that is.

I haven't done any name calling, so I guess the pressure must be getting to you. You'll never convince me that what you did was a valuable service. You were a mule...you carried the contraband to the user and now want absolution. The thing is, I don't care. I'm not the one that is going to judge you in regards to playoff eleigibility. But I will have a say when it comes to further IACAO involvement. Your principles are tarnished and no amount of excuses will clean it up.

The members that came to your aid had weak defenses at best. "We want to know the answers, everyone else has them." or "I just want to know how I did." I guess they have no colleagues with phones. Doesn't their state association have a working phone? How about email, they seem to be caapable to use the internet.

Go ahead and dilute the quality of officiating by providing the answers. Those that believe that it makes no difference are usually not the guys at the top of the talent pool. It's always easy to say that a test is not the measure of an official. Yet, professionals are still tested each year, just to keep them sharp. Hmmmmm...
