In my state the test is open book. It is widely distributed. I was not aware it was a secret squirrel type of test. Are we talking about the same test? I've had a copy of it since September 15. It is mailed to every registered official in our state to be completed in open book format at any time before the deadline of November 23. It is blatantly announced as being an open book test designed to encourage research of the rules. I was not aware it was kept under lock and key in other states. I thought all NFHS states likely operated under the same system. Request withdrawn for all the trouble it seems to be causing. Last edited by biggravy; Wed Oct 27, 2010 at 09:02am. |

No, not even close. It varies greatly from state to state.

Ahhhhh (lightbulb comes on)...
EDIT: I found this thread that I did not see when I searched earlier for my answer. Copy of the NFHS Test (no not the answers) On that particular day, I guess folks weren't so pissy and the following answer was provided: Quote:

You will need a certified timer with 40 hours of training to monitor the time you spend.

I was thinking more along the lines of "cruel and unusual"

Some states run a closed book, proctored test where you have to attain a certain percentage correct to advance in classifications. If someone posts the exam here early, officials in those states can (and will) take advantage of it. Some have open-book tests on a certain date but also only allow a certain amount of time to complete it. Having the test early obviously is a great advantage there also. As I said, they're only cheating themselves. Signed: Pissy Ol' JR |

This year, in both Football and Basketball, Washington State has begun using a 50 question test that is more situational than definitional. In order to properly answer the situational questions you must understand the definitions and then properly apply the rules; a better test in my opinion.

Is that something you could e'mail to people not from Washington? Sounds like a great tool for practice with situations and rules.

Having said that, I find it disturbing to think that any official with the most basic rules knowledge would think it necessary to look for an extra advantage to pass an open book test.
