Just finished the test...got a 98. Probably missed the one question due to not reading the question correctly.

As to the VHSL online rules clinic, that's 40 minutes of my life I'll never get back. And much of it was administrative stuff that I as an official don't give a damn about. I will say, according to the information from the clinic, players and coaches in boys soccer are out-lapping the competition when it comes to ejections.

I took the MHSAA exam for the heck of it and got a passing score of 86% (26 of 30)

I was surprised that I got the blarge question wrong. Apparently, one doesn't cancel the basket and resume with an AP throw in.

At least I got the question about 3-person mechanics right.

All double fouls are POI

I should have studied Case 4.19.8 Sit C better. But sometimes, missed questions are better learning experiences than getting questions right.

There is one question on the nfhs part 1 exam for which the key is incorrect.
Good thing too. Makes it easy to see who cheats.

Was it this question?

"If B1 commits an intentional foul during the jump ball to start the game, alternating-possession control is established when free thrower A1 is handed the ball. "

I got a 94%. One question I just marked incorrectly and one honestly didn't know the rule. But this one.

Since you chose to take this during the same week as the time changed ("...fall backward"), heck, considering the extra hour of sleep you got, you're still 20 minutes to the good!
