Just as above posters are reiterating, you
sign an agreement at SCCO not to talk about the essay topics. The unspoken code of professional ethics tells you to keep to your word.
As for my past comment on the OAT, that to me seems obvious. For many people it is a "grey area." I'm not expert on ethics but I do recognize the world is full of "grey areas" and it is your mode of navigation thru these "grey areas" that separate those with integrity and those lacking such.
This is straight from the OAT "Rules of Conduct":
3. You will maintain the confidentiality of the test. You will not reproduce or attempt to reproduce test materials through memorization, recording, or other means. You will not provide information relating to test content that may provide unfair advantage to other examinees. By way of example, you will not make use of or participate in the electronic posting of information regarding test content or answers.
I was never trying to be rude. That would be a waste of time and energy. You interpret it your way as I will on my own. Ever get fired from a job? Understand what lawyers do? It's little "grey areas" like this that get you in trouble. Always.
Doesn't hurt to question--- everything.
