key-hole rules

For the key-hole questions should we only consider x, y, z directions? Should we , in some cases, rotate objects 20, 30, 45, etc. degrees to have a perfect fit? What are the ADA rules for this subsection? Thanks so much in advance.

I am like 99.9% sure its only the x,y,z angles...I have never come across a problem that was at any other angle

TopScore, for one of their questions, told me that I had rotate their object 30 degrees to make it go through its hole. I am also 99.9% sure no rotation is involved but I'd like to know if ADA somewhere specifies all the rules. If sometimes objects require 20, 30, 40 degree rotations that part of the exam can become quite challenging.

That would be insane, they better not have that on the real deal...im taking it saturday!

Wish you the best of luck.

I think for the real test only the x, y, z directions are used.

I just confirmed with the ADA, only x, y, and z planes arte used

Yea...you got me wondering about it and i had to find out

Thanks. I just sent an email message to TopScore to tell them about this ADA rule. Let's see if they say something different.

Let me know when they reply

This is TopScore's reply:

"Any manipulation PRIOR to entering the aperture is allowed so that the object will pass straight through the opening without tilting or rotating 1/2 way through."

So, I guess that means "45 degree rotation" is allowed.
I'll call ADA tomorrow to triple check this.
