On September 10, the Dharma Initiative launched the Recruit Created Assessment project, allowing recruits to produce their own multiple choice exams (similar to Test 2) on any topic, which they can then issue to other recruits. Playing another recruit's test gains the creator 50 Dharma points.
Furthermore, if the Dharma Initiative uses a recruit's test or any of their questions in the future, a further 500 points will be given in recognition. Test categories include communication, physics and psychology, as well as "other" for particular specialist subjects. The nine best test creators received instructor status from the Dharma Initiative.
