First of all you have to pass the test each year to maintain your license (probation or suspension), but you might not get any points if you are not ranked high enough in the other categories.

That's the point where we disagree, Jeff. It seems like the IHSA tests your knowledge as a way to make sure that you really do know something about the rules- right? Before they license you, it seems that they do want to at least ensure that you pick up a rule book and look at it occasionally. Doesn't having the answers given to you kinda negate the whole purpose of anyone taking the test in the first place?

I can see it as not being a big deal in some areas or situations, like Stripe's maybe, but in a state where you HAVE to pass the test, it just seems like a helluva advantage to me- and an advantage that really isn't to the benefit of the testee either imo.
