[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]There's a difference between a company releasing test questions and answers after an administration window has closed, and someone else sharing that info while the window is still open. I don't know if the SAT and PSAT send out the answers, but they certainly don't do while people are still taking the same version of the test. With time zones, there are people who start the SAT 23 hours before other people. There have been cases where people have used this time to create and sell pencils will all the answers written on them to people on the other side of the world. I would consider this cheating.

If the tests are not high stakes, you won't have these problems.  We are talking about a test (PARCC) that is for grades 3-8 (not college entrance).  The stakes are high because it measures schools (NCLB) and possibly teacher evaluations.  If you take those things away, there is no incentive to cheat.  [/quote]

PARCC goes through 11th grade.
