Bravo polyad.
I feel that all the NFHS tests should be open book and open mouth.
Officials should use these exam sessions as learning experiences and not have to worry about passing in order to umpire/referee.
The way it is now here in Virginia, you take the test (closed book) a week before the season starts and you don't get the results back for 3-4 weeks. In the meantime, you're applying rules as you answered them on the test which might be incorrect.
We have some great sports officials who work State tournaments who are not good test-takers. We lost the services of one state-caliber referee last year when he failed the exam by one point.
What can we do to get the attention of the National Federation and have them open their eyes to this problem?
Even the NCAA doesn't require closed-book exams.
