I see why you are frustrated. On the other hand, I don't know if it does skew the results to have people studying beforehand. In the future all students who take the exam will have time to prepare. From that perspective, any early testing where people didn't prepare will be the ones skewing the results. hmmmm.

Mamasaphire,

Thank you for your reply. I do understand what your saying.

I could be totally wrong in my way of viewing this but that is how I see it.

If these tests end up being similar to cleps/dantes then most people will likely study a few weeks to a month or so (which is what I thought the original beta testing period would be). In my opinion that would have given a true sample of what most people taking this test in the future would be studying for.

I agree in the future studying more or less will not skew the results because at that point the questions are set and everyone has as long or short of a time to prepare to take the exam. Since it will cost them a fee most will not sit for the exam until they feel they can pass it. But in this beta testing stage that was not the case some had a shorter & some had longer time frame that was not based on how well a person felt they were prepared to sit for the exam. Rather it was based on a deadline that kept getting extended.
