Master Judge Test

Master Judges.... what is the MCBJ Test like?

In the CBJ "Continuing Education" section of my Judges Portal there is a CBJ Review Test, which I take a couple of times a year... but no real mention of prep for the MCBJ Test. I have downloaded the current CBJ Manual, Table Captain Manual, 2021 Rep Advisories and 2021 Rules but is there more?

If you are competent with all the written material you have in hand then you will be successful in your quest.
HOWEVER, read and reread each question and look for a few very thoughtful (trick?) answers. This not a speed test, so take your time.
You'll be fine.

And to those of you that have already mastered The Masters Test. Please don't try and help by giving answers. It makes the test less effective.

Thanks Ed..... I didn't even think about a time limit, but that's a good point.

I was assuming there was a limited number of documents to draw questions from. And somewhere I did see a statement that the CBJ Review Test was a good tool for the MCBJ Test.

Yes it's additional information, but is not directly associated with the Masters test.

Is it a test to see how much meat you can get in your rolling cooler? :-)
