For the record, this happens every single year in many associations I belong to. It is up to the individual official to do more study or talking with other officials about rules (and people here are an example of that). And those individuals that get the answers in my area, stay in officiating and seem to be just fine.

I guess I look at this from an academic point of view. If it is cheating to give the answers, it is cheating to give any answer. But I am clearly in the minority on this one.

Wow i didnt know asking for help would bring on World War III... I was never looking for a hand out, just help. If you didnt want to help you didnt have to post. I was looking for answers to check my self. I am new to this and dont know very many people in this to turn to if i have questions, and thats why I came here. My test was done and I wanted to check some answers that I was not clear on.... I didnt know there are still people in this world that hate to see people prosper and suceed.... and may turn out to be better at something than they are..

Don't take it personally. It happens every year at this time. You're not the first to set off a spontaneous s*** storm and you won't be the last.

And I'm sure that if you "check some answers" and find out you answered them wrong, you won't change them, will you? :rolleyes:

Well after passing my test with the consult of some and being steered in the right direction on some of the questions I am excited to attend my first game. Thanks to all that helped, and thanks to all that didnt.
