Mr. Naik,

I am finalizing the records responsive to your request. A few records provided are tests and or answer keys, which are exempt as per RCW 42.56.250(1). Are you willing to exclude tests questions, scoring keys, and other examination data used to administer a license, employment, or academic examination?
