USFA Refereeing Test

[Engfoil]

I'm currently trying to get certified as a referee (or president) and have to write the written test in the coming weeks. I've gone through the rules and have done some ref'ing at a small local competition. I was just wondering if anyone had any sample written tests or a bunch of review questions that would be representative of the questions on the USFA test. I know that I'm being kind of paranoid, but I would be most thankful for any help!

Uhm, how about the question bank that the test is picked from? It's posted on the USFA site.

Not only are these representative, these ARE the questions that will be on the test. No answers of course (that would just make it TOO trivial) but all of the questions are there.

Seems like a good percentage of the questions posted here on fencing.net can be answered immediately by just going to the USfencing.org website and looking around a bit.

Well, except for what to do when the plastic tip has ripped through on your practice foil...

Yeah, but that's an emergency situation.... even if the USFA posted such information it might not be fast enough.
