What would be the "proper channel" to point out these errors to the proper people without coming across like a whiner, a know-it-all, a jerk, or whatever? Who ARE the proper people? Does it vary from one state to the next?

In my state 2 questions would be 2% of the test. And there is a process to appeal...in writing to the state association, with documentation to backup claim, within 10 days of the test. I doubt local assoc ever knows about it, and it has no impact on assignments. I have sent in a few times and they agree sometimes, sometimes not. I don't do it anymore, waste of time.

JM,
This year, the Part II test was conceived by the IHSA Rule Interpreters. If you are seeking redress then Craig A. would be the man to handle issues. Drop me an email and we can talk about specifics.

Thanks for clearing that up. I see various posts come up on various boards and some people were clearly talking about a "different" Part II test.

Not how I would say it, because I don't have any kind of "grievance" that I want addressed. I just thought they'd want to know. Were it me, I would.
