<p>which brings up the point of the poor decisions by the TCB and ETS to only offer a limited release of the QAS. I have yet to understand why they find it acceptable to offer (at a price that is) to anyone who took the test, and “force” the others in having to level the playing field through “illegal” means. If they based that decision on the need to protect the test, they surely deserve an “F” as the test is widely available to anyone who wants to sponsor the legal acquisition of the test. Of course, that is the same institution that allows a number of well-financed outfits abroad to make a mockery of the security and integrity of the test by relying on purportedly non-released prior versions. </p>

<p>To this day, I do not understand why they closed that little department that offered the past QAS for a reasonable 4 dollars a pop. </p>

<p>If it were up to me, those tests should be released online within ten days of the administration. Plain and simple.</p>

<p>I agree. When I mentioned earlier that I spent some time coming up with a list of advanced strategies, I meant a new list of strategies (I already had a standard list that I’ve been teaching my students for years) that are useful if you know them, but that you do not need to get an 800. -b/(2a) as well as permutations and combinations are in this category. I also put Xiggi’s formula in this category (sorry Xiggi) since any question that can be solved using Xiggi’s formula can also be done with a “d=rt chart.”</p>

<p>I think you’re preaching to the choir here.</p>
