It happens every year. It happens with the NFHS Part 1 exam too. Anyone asking here usually finds out that they've come to the wrong place. It's nowhere near as bad as it used to be here when they were openly trading exams and answers.

There's nothing the matter with discussing individual exam questions. The difference is learning vs. cheating.

Jmo.

If a married man used Viagra would that qualify as cheating on his wife?

Peace

Depends.

How was the Viagra obtained? Was it a legal prescription?

If he obtained it through the wrong channels, did he lie about it to authorities?

Did his wife ask that he not use it, and he used it anyway?

So many questions to answer...

Please no more jokes.......

What if she turned a blind eye to what was going on? Would that change your mind about who is responsible?

Peace

Jmo.
Not all states use the test the same way. So accusing people of cheating is or isn't over the top depending on what state the person is in. Jmo.

Why would anybody ask for the exam and answers then? If they're going to use the exam for study purposes, then what possible good are the answers? They'll find the answers while they're studying. If they can't find a particular answer, then they can come here and ask. And if they're going to write the same exam and their test mark doesn't mean anything, then why would they need to have that exam early?

The people that come here asking for the exam and/or answers are 99.99% cheating azzholes. That's jmo.

Your faith in humanity is much greater than mine, Rich. That's nice.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

You don't need that to pass a urine test. It's multiple choice and all the answers are "P".

If you get an answer key, you can have the references for the questions. The answers should not be a secret if you are trying to understand the rules.

There are a lot of states or jurisdictions that do not use the NF tests. So to suggest everyone that is asking is cheating is not right. I will never take the Part 2 Test again. If I ask for the test, it is not going to help me cheat at anything. That is not an opinion that is a fact.

Peace
