Using The Arbiter, there are blocks and limits applied to each referee to contol mileage (usually 60 miles max), block of your home town, high school you attended or work at, high school your kids attend, etc. You can choose to block dates, teams, schools and partners or reduce mileage. Coaches can block referees (there is a limit to blocks allowed).
We officiate the V girls game at 6:00 followed by the boys game on the same night, same 3-man crew. The fee is $63, doesn't sound like much but mileage is added on at 45 cents per mile ($9 minimum). The same is true of JV and Middle School except for 2-man crews and lower game fee paid.

The exam does not float around before the test date. A strong rules knowldege doesn't guarantee proficiency on the court, however, I guess they figure it will give you a much better chance than a weak rules knowledge.
