He would recite all possible questions for a group of lawyers and "security people," ensuring he gave no hints to the answers (despite not knowing the answers in advance).

In this study, behavior codes included On Task—Independent (i.e., working alone on an assigned task), On Task Conversation (i.e., discussing work with a peer or teacher), Off Task (i.e., not working on their assigned task), and Gaming the System (i.e., systematic guessing or use of hints to obtain answers rather than learning)—all of which are typically coded for during BROMP observations.
Students were given multiple opportunities to answer each question (between two and six attempts, depending on question structure) and were allowed to access hints and immediate correct/incorrect answer feedback.
I would have liked it even more if there hadn't been so much jumping around ("See X Down to get a hint to the answer to Y Across"), but all in all, I enjoyed myself.
