The law's requirements for VEs doesn't require ANY of them
to possess academic certificates or college degrees nor
experience in test-giving and test-grading. Privatization of
ALL radio operator license testing (commercial as well as
amateur) pretty much dictates the easier-to-grade multiple-
choice question-answer format. Certainly so for the all-
volunteer amateur radio test coordinators.

I hadn't thought about it that way but of course it is true that VE's can be
assumed to have no academic qualifications and must grade the tests using a
template with holes. You are absolutely correct on this Len.
