Anyone else the took it have thoughts on it?
I thought so, too, among the easiest in recent years. Still, there were a couple that were not going to win any awards for clarity. I wonder if anyone ever proofs the test or gives it to someone to to take to see if it makes sense.

I also took the test last night and I agree that the test was fairly easier than anticipated. The ARS CD was a helpful tool, as well as, studying tests of years gone by.

Our crew will be going over the exam but no one has copies of the test or answer key. the test proctor gave no indication of when it will be available to us either. He just gave us the Pass/Fail word.

Can anyone help? Here's my email address [email protected]

Thanks

I'm guessing not, since someone actually taking the test might catch that they asked the same question twice.

We get our results with the test and answer sheet on Tuesday, I think everyone will have taken the exam by then so it wouldn't be of use to anyone.

In NC, those who miss the exam have 10 days to request an emergency exam, which is only worth half the score.

My buddy officiates in SC and they don't use the NF exam, theytake a homegrown exam. I have seen that test and it is a monster compared to what we have to do.

We were told --here in NC -- we'd have a different test this year and not The Fed. test.
But --we had that one --and I know some folks had copies in advance.
I hope our State office starts making up their own. I'm tired of hearing how guys cheated and get good games -- and then don't know the rules.

I got my test score back last night. Ended up with a 99, the highest I ever scored on Part 2.

Kentucky uses the National Part II exam, but re-orders the questions so that you cannot use or create a cheat sheet that says #1 was F, #2 was T, etc. Pretty good idea to foil those who are not willing to read the rules book.

Someone either told you wrong or somebody misunderstood.

Next year, the exam will be online.

There was no plan to make any changes this year.
