Interesting when considering the possible context.
Yeah, I'm not buying that shit. They were all given the same list of study materials three months before the test. The black firefighters association even said it was a test to measure the ability to read and retain the information contained within the study material. That creates a level playing field right there unless some of the fire fighters didn't have access to the study material. In fact, one of the main plaintiffs went to great lengths to study for the exam despite being dyslexic.
