Default Knowlwdge test Sign offs

Just been checking the latest FAA knowledge testing requirement matrix
to see what the sign off requirements are for the instructors tests.
I was surprised to see that non off them require any formal sign off,
even the FOI.

So it is a case of turning up at the test center on day and cracking
out all the exams wanted.

It has nothing to do with sport pilots, all CFI rating knowledge tests
can be taken w/o a sign off. Technically the FOI requires a sign off
if you are taking it for the purpose of CFI but not if you are taking
it for the purpose of (B/A/I)GI. Testing centers were understandably
confused so the FAA sent out a notice confirming that no sign off is
required for FOI.

"Fundamentals of Instructing", an FAA knowledge test, basically on the human
learning process. Must be passed before you receive the "Flight Instructor"
certificate.

Small nit....

The FOI must be passed provided the requirements haven't been met in
another way (like being a certified teacher in the state). Since my a
certified teacher in this state, my FOI requirement was already met
without taking the FOI exam.
