Want to see a summary of the old study guides, and some sample
questions? I'll post them if you are interested.

Always am.

Here's a sample - lots more to come.

Well, I can see why those types of questions are no longer being used.
It's more about who is giving the tests than it is about who is
taking it.

There has always been a lot of room for interpretation on essay
questions. And interpretation always leaves a lot of room for further
interpretations, ie arguments.


That is exactly my point. It leave the person grading the test a lot of
lattitude. It also gives them real big headaches.
