There are seven tests given each year. Of those, four exams are made publicly available afterward, ETS spokesman Tom Ewing said. Those exams are never reused.

But the other three are candidates for reuse. ETS says test books are carefully collected after those exams. But since the recycling practice is well known in test-prep circles, the questions on these exams are like gold to test-takers and tutors.

“Certainly there are students who keep their booklets,” Quattrociocchi said. Regardless, test-prep companies can practically reassemble them. While he says Princeton Review does not collect full copies of the copyrighted exams, it sends students and employees to take the test each time it’s offered and report back. An hour after Saturday’s exam, he said, the company had figured out the exam was a repeat.
