I haved checked my test answers on one of the boards for the last 5 years. I am waiting also on this board or the other one for the answers to be posted. I am a State Tourney official. I have officiated for over 20 years. I do the tests! I don't want to hear the stuff about cheating or not studying etc. It is just nice to know if you have them right or if they are wrong I can research what wording I messed up in the question.

Why can't you research the wording that you messed up when you get your test back? Isn't your test marked and returned?

Yes, I do. If you want a copy, just leave $500,000 in small unmarked bills behind the third tree from the lemonaide stand in the park. You will receive the key in the mail.

Oh yeah - I forgot to ask if you're interested in buying the Brooklyn Bridge, too.

Check your email.

I emailed you the answers.

You are always going to get this response from people across the country. I guess they think the only time anyone can pick up a rulebook is to take these tests. So they answer these questions the same way.

Hope you get what you need from my email.

Peace

Thanks Rut. I know you get bashed here from time to time. I am sided with you on the importance of the test.
I don't think it is a bad thing to test.......but that does not make you a good official. Officiating makes you a better official.

Hey Rut,

If it wouldn't be too much of a bother could you send them to [email protected]

Thanks,

P.S.
If you send them to me, I'll take care of all the requests that come in after.

Next year...

I think next year we should have an "online meeting" type deal on this forum and go over the exam. Just like what happens when you attending your Club meeting. We could create a thread, each take a couple questions, answer it, and if someone disagrees....battle it out! Although there might be a lot of hitting the refresh button, I think there would be something to gain out of it.....then again, maybe not. What do you all think?

I agree completely. We should have each active member responsible for 1 question. He/she then has to answer the question, with a rule reference and a brief explanation. It could work.

Test

Funny how certain people were so quick to criticize, but there sure are alot of people who want the answers, just were afraid to be the one to ask!

It's open book test, so it's not like the answers are a big secret anyway. It's here to LEARN from, not for them to trip us up.

Besides, what are they going to do if we don't pass - Fire us? HA HA HA HA HA

In some states. It is closed book.

It could also serve as a liablilty limiter for the association since the state establishes the qualifications of the officials and the associaiton only administers the test (similar to the background checks).
