Does anyone think it's coincidence or intentional that the protest session was 3 weeks after the test??? Perhaps trying to speed things up for a list that needs to be created or looking too much into it?? Also I heard June 18 or July 18 for makeup..any confirmations? I believe they will have a protest session and then next step will be tvb

Having the protest session 2 weeks earlier than expected does raise one's suspicion about a possible earlier than expected release of a list.

I think we are reading too much into it. The protest session was a week early but the makeup exam is 3 months after the original test date, which doesn't seem rushed to me. There's no reason for them to rush, current list will last until at least the fall. DCAS probably just had time that week to schedule the protest would be my guess.

I do think that they will be promoting from this test in Nov. (Thanksgiving) and / or Dec. (XMAS); formulating a list sometime in October. On another note, do you guys think the makeup testers will be given a different test.. or at a minimum, the same questions, but not in the same order? Will their proposed answer key be different than ours?

The makeup test has the same questions that we had but they rearrange the order of the questions, as well as the configuration of the answer choices. I'm not sure if they get the same research questions as us, maybe someone can clarify that. My guess would be that the research questions are different.

I have no doubt that the list release will be in October, 6 months after this test. The 2011 list is only at 107 names I believe
