Copywritten material?

Yes. It says "Copyrighted and Published in 2005 by the National Federation of State High School Associations." It's property.


I would doubt seriously that FED would go to the trouble to pay the copyright fees just for a simply test.

If they do, that's great, but I would assume (maybe erroneously) that someone just added that onto the paper work - that's easy to do.

Its too much trouble to get things copyright protected etc.,

And what are they copyright protecting? Questions that are often misworded or poorly worded?

And then to have to pay lawyers to go to court to sue someone over putting a few questions about the rules on the web??

Don't think so.
You don't have to pay fees to be copyrighted. Simply publishing and noting the you own the copyright is all that is required.

They place it there so others can't take the tests and make a profit without their approval....I'd be certain that the ARS CD's are made with a licensing fee.
