While all the emotions and thoughts concerning this exam are legitimate, I think allowing the availabe forum for recourse is the best and most effective approach. Lawsuits will be a waste of money and time. The protest session is the only effective mechanism, that will yield favorable results for all of us. I agree with the poster, who talked about having a mature and well equipped cadre of test takers submit a well thought out rebuttal. However challenging this test was on that day, if you were able to maintain your composure and work through the questions to the best of your ability, and have the same type of attitude on the day of the protest session, those who have been committed from the begining will have a reasonable opportunity to be on this list. I just hope that cool heads will prevail while this all plays out and we are held in abeyance, and there will be a siginificant number of well deserving candidates sworn in as future lieutenants.
