mildot1 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Maybe I am missing it? Is there anywhere on the website that you can view the RO test? Taking the course in feb and just curious what's on the exam. Yhanks mildot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furyalecto Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I don't think so. Things may have changed since I took the exam & my memory isn't the best, but it's all in the book. IIRC the exam has questions that you have to give the answers while noting those answer's relevant section within the rulebook. It's an open book test.

colt Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 If you are a RO your test to recertify is online but if your taking the RO coarse you will get to use your book. If I remember right I took the test home and e-mailed it to the instructor. Brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chefcs5 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 you take home the test and its open book! its easy just make sure to cite the proper rule! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayouSlide Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Citing the correct rule is the key...the whole process is designed to get you to become familiar with the rule book, which is essential to becoming a good RO and the groundwork for effectively working matches. And if you go on to CRO, once you finish that course you can't help but know the rule book inside and out, including the proper rules for all those pesky little occasional issues that can be tough to dig out of the rule book when you need 'em.

Curtis +1 I'm in the CRO course now. My brand new rulebook looks like it's 10 years old now, it's so broken down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2MoreChains Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 From what I remember, answering the questions was not the hard part of the final exam. Choosing the correct rule to support the answer was the hard part... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read your question closer , = I thought you had to take the renew exam that is online. The thing is be able like they say = to finde the back up Rule # in the Book. just knowing the rule is not enough. you have to be able to finde the rule in the book and state the rule # as backup. If you cant find the rite rule # out of the book = you get the question as a miss ,even if your rite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chills1994 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 having the rulebook via the uspsa.org website in the .pdf version open sure is handy. use the search function in the .pdf version to find keywords from the question. when the keyword search stops in the correct section of the rulebook then you also have the rule number to cite.

Poppa Bear Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 We are having a level 1 class in April. Several of us are printing out the pages as pdf's and then placing them in a loose leaf binder to make it easier to take notes etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
