Greetings Everyone,

With the permission of the B-Greek management, I would like to invite 
you to try the National Biblical Greek Exam at no cost. ( 
www.biblicalgreek.org/exam ) This online exam has been in development 
for quite some time and I would greatly appreciate your professional 
opinions or any feedback you may have about it.  Please email me 
off-list for a free promotional code and specific instructions.

The exam is offered completely online.  Normally someone in addition to 
the examinee must register as a proctor, but for the free evaluation you 
will not need a proctor.  The exam is dynamically generated from pools 
of questions categorized by grammatical topic and level of difficulty.  
This allows the exam to be taken multiple times.  After finishing the 
exam, you will see each question that was missed and have the 
opportunity to comment or challenge these questions.  This is an 
important process for improving the exam and ensuring a fair 
evaluation.  A printable PDF certificate is then created that details 
all of the exam results.  These results include: the overall score, 
national ranking, and specific scores in nine grammatical categories.  
Such detailed analysis is not only designed to benefit the examinee but 
it should provide the instructor with an accurate assessment of the 
examinee's strengths and weaknesses.

If you teach Greek, I would also be delighted to send you free 
promotional codes for your students.  As soon as five students in one 
class take the exam, the instructor can access class averages in the 
various grammatical areas.  You also will be able to see how your class 
compares with others in the nation.

All performances and results are completely private.  You don't have any 
pressure to finish the exam if you don't have the time or are not 
satisfied with it.  Of course, you will find your results more 
informative if you complete the fifty questions.

I am looking forward to getting your thoughts on the exam so that it may 
be improved to be more effective and helpful for all who are 
interested.  Thank you for your work in the promotion of Greek learning.
