@Marvin100–I said that an end to recycled tests would require the production of 20 new tests a year because I was including Sunday tests in my calculations. If we also include makeup tests–such as the ones that will be given for U.S. East Coast students who were snowed out last Saturday–then the number would surely be considerably higher than 20. You say the College Board has enough revenue, but I’m not sure that’s the only pertinent issue–I really doubt ETS has enough qualified personnel to triple or quadruple production on demand.
As for the June 2014 U.S. vs. June 2014 international issue–I suspect that rumor started simply because the December 2014 international had been a repeat of March 2014 U.S., and people simply guessed that the next international test would likely be a repeat of the next unreleased U.S. test. If my suspicions are correct, then the reappearance of the June 2014 international test in HK and Singapore is indeed merely a coincidence.
(Let me emphasize that Bob Schaeffer of FairTest was quite explicit that he had received an electronic copy of whatever was circulating in Korea and that he had determined that it was June 2014 U.S. I don’t believe him–but the rumor seems to have been unambiguous on the U.S. point.)
