What was protested?

Probably nothing because it seems as if no one cares. This captains thread has been dead since the announcement of the test.

Agree

About 30 protesters went. The lowest amount of questions protested by one was 7 with a the most being 19 questions. My buddy mostly focused on in-basket questions.

Black33 · Newbie

God Bless whomever protested 19 questions. I didn't feel there was more than 5. But I could be wrong. Do you know which were the top questions protested? I'm sure the stop sign question was number 1.

Rocket · Veteran Member

Don't know specific questions protested but sounds like enough ammo for those of us on outside looking in. (67)

Black33 · Newbie

Thanks Rocket, good luck.

Anyone else with some new info?

JAYDEE · Newbie

ANY INFO. ON HOW MANY PASSED THE TEST.

Rocket · Veteran Member

I have heard a range of 63 (supposedly confirmed by The Key instructor) to 98 ( on these forums). Nobody really putting out a concrete answer yet.

i threw that 98 passing up early after the exam.......i retracted that info soon thereafter.......i believe its closer to 62-63

oneadditional · Guru

The numbers will swell to save embarrassment

brat4914 · Guru

They went from 64 to 128 last go round (DOUBLED)

Those #s reflect a poorly written test with challengeable questions, that ended up with approx. 15 changes. I've heard this exam was well written, with not many bad questions. Do you think the # of passers will double?

Both of these exams were vastly different from on another; the test prior to this one was extremely poorly written. Whom ever wrote that exam relied on trickery instead of focusing on content. They were so smart they tricked themselves. I believe that this exam was filled with tricks but the content was fair.

No further - you are 100% correct

technocrat1 · Guru

With that being said, do you believe there will be that many questions that could be protested to double the list?

Extremely doubt it.

The more important question is determining how many actually passed. If it's 98 that list will take almost 2 years on top of the year remaining on the current list.

Wow...you think the current list will take a year to be finished? I was kinda hoping February...only 60 remaining right? Who knows.

wereinbacklog · Guru

Its taken more than a year to reach list #67 so Im going by that.

I hear ya...just gonna sit back and wait patiently for the new list then. Good luck to everyone looking to pick up a few answers with the protest session btw...there's bound to be some changes...so KEEP THE FAITH!
