<<What is the purpose of the exam?  So that we can test the subject matter
knowledge, or to test if we can memorize the answers?

PLEASE do not publish exam answers.

I  looked over some of the questions in the pools on the FCC site. At first
I didn't realise they gave the correct answer before each list of options,
and I was enjoying using this as a quick review of electrical theory. But as
soon as it dawned on me they had the correct answer right at the top, before
the four choices, that ruined it for me, since I couldn't avoid noticing the
correct answer before reading all 4 options.  I also noticed that an undue
number of questions had the  correct answer "all the above".
