Oh I know what they Test for, and it is not knowledge,it is nothing then Memozizing some Q&As that have no meaning to the test taker. The writtens are nothing more than jumping thru hoops In other words, since they provide the question pool, you don't think that people have to learn the answers in order to correctly answer the questions? How do you think that they figure out how to fill in the correct answer then? Both the pool AND answers are published. Let's take a typical question: What is the length of a dipole for 14.240Mhz? Now since the questions AND answers are published, the prospective test taker can simply memorize the numerical answer instead of having to learn the appropriate equation and how to use that equation. Using the memorize the numerical answer approach, the new ham has passed the test but is unable to calculate the dipole that he/she may actually want to build for operating Dee D. Flint, N8UZE |
