In Illinois, this test qualifies you for promotion and makes you eligible for post season assignments. All things being equal - the kid that gets the higher score because he cheats may get the assignment over the guy who deserves it.
Does anyone have tonight's winning Illinois lottery numbers?

Okay, said cheater gets the big game, very unlikely despite what the by-laws say, and cheater F's up a rule. Cheater's big game chances are zip from that point on.
Someone who's taking a short cut, would most likely kick a rule during the season, thus never making the big game.
Someone prone to short cuts, would also likely have it show in their mechanics, again making that big game unlikely.
Someone taking short cuts would not go to camps, would disappear in rules meetings, and the word would get out about them during the season, all making that playoff game unlikely.
It comes to this, if the state says the criteria is based on several factors the test is so far down on that list it's laughable. What happens with a test in November has much less impact than what happens on the court in December and January.
