Re: Road Scholar B
I had a very interesting Road Scholar test at state. We took first overall, so I can now say I'm an expert at Road Scholar.
It was only topo, highway, and build-a-map, which made it very easy. No profiling or UTM. Also, no story, which always makes it easier. The questions were simple, and very self-explanatory, and I think we might have actually gotten first with a good score this time. The questions were also spread out fairly evenly, 10 highway and 15 topo. Don't expect tests to be this simple at your states.

Re: Road Scholar B
how is it possible you had only ten highway questions? At our state last year, we had about 50 questions for the highway maps.zyzzyva98 wrote:I had a very interesting Road Scholar test at state. We took first overall, so I can now say I'm an expert at Road Scholar.![]()

Re: Road Scholar B
A lot of the quizzes were short this year. (Very nice for getting to events on time). I don't do highway, but I was just as surprised as you are. It's all up to the test-makers
