The "Straight Forward" topic. What is with the heavy handed moderation here? There wasn't even talk of specific questions, although that shouldn't be a concern anyway since the makeup is a different test.

We will put it back up. We're just temporarily removing them so we can remove anything that may potentially reveal exam content

Can I ask why you guys are so concerned with this? We know the makeup is a different exam. Where was this concern for prior exams when scammers were a legitimate issue?

DCAS being DCAS they might get lazy and give the same test anyway. Until we can confirm that it is in fact a different exam we owe it to our students--and everyone else who spent a year studying--to ensure that cheaters don't get an unfair advantage this time around.

I get it, I guess, but it's pretty frustrating to not have this resource to freely discuss the exam on top of not having our answer sheets. I don't see what's so far fetched about the writers delivering 2 tests. They had tons of time to do it.

FYI the 2015 LT exam Inbasket was exactly the same for the makeup. DCAS is supposed to change the order of the answer choices but didn't. So basically a make up tester could've just memorized the answer key. So don't have that much faith that DCAS will do the right thing or any thing that makes sense for that matter. We've all been burned too many times by that agency.

When are the make up testers taking the exam exactly? 6 months from now?

haha Goose-eggs. I'm curious about that one myself. For the LT exam the main makeup was a month after the protest session. Unreal.
