That's a little harsh, IMO. Maybe some actually just use them for themselves for study purposes, and don't share them with people that get "graded" and/or do the test in a closed book setting. We take the test on-line...and it is open book. There is also no time limit on the test...you can test for awhile, come back and test some more...at your convienence. Take it easy on the poor little goobers.

Obviously, the people who have requested it haven't realized when the thread was dated. Oh well... they'll figure it out. Maybe I should send them last year's exam... |

For what it's worth, the NFHS is working on putting the test on line nationally starting next year.
They are also looking to scrap the T/F can you figure out the question format, with multiple choice of actual game video. |

Iow, what might be OK for a particular state could also be viewed as cheating in a different state. States also write the exams at different times too- some not until early December. Anybody who has the actual exam a month before they write that exam sureasheck has the potential of cheating when they do write the exam. We hand out the previous year's exam to any of our association's members who would like study material. That's heckuva lot different having all of the exact questions of the current exam pre-exam. There's a big difference between getting it right and cheating. Jmo, but I don't think that I wanna go out on the court with officials who cut corners. That's just me though. Obviously, all of these people requesting these exams every year don't agree with me. |

I have said this before and I will say it again.
I want to work with people that can officiate, I do not care what test they passed. I have yet to officiate a game where the coach or assignor wanted to know what my test score is.
Peace

The problem is that the potential for cheating is there. Perception may not be reality, but that perception alone is a problem. JMO. |

Whether someone gets a test score has nothing to do with the integrity of an official as it relates to getting off a game or how well someone works. The test is to get the official to look at the rules. I want people who not only understand the rules, but know how they are to be applied. Many of the questions do not ask common sense real world questions. If you only pick up the rulebook, casebook or handbook at one time of the year and never pick it up again. I am much more concerned about that official. Hey, this is my opinion and many folks I know share it. I am not going to convince anyone here either way. Peace
