A pilot project, wherein high school students at two different levels, Chemistry I Honors and Chemistry II Honors, were using college level questions demonstrated this format was compatible in a high school setting. Rapid feedback was available to students and thorough analysis of test scores was available to the teacher. Classroom preparation time was increased for the teacher because part of the work load was shifted from grading to preparing lessons.

Another advantage of this pilot project was that there was an element of external assessment involved in each examination since none of the questions were teacher prepared, just teacher selected according to appropriate topics.
