At least the lower scoring association did it on their own. Knowing the questions ahead of time also gives an advantage in scoring since you can limit your studying to the questions only. Less to recall. Personally, I never got the test ahead of time in NY or NC. Did in GA and OK. In NY, there were 50 questions and if you got 7 or more wrong you wouldn't even be considered for varsity. Standards were lower in NC, GA and OK.
Out of curiosity, were these scores for the part I test of part I test created by NFHS?
