I'm not sure if those "magen tests" (matkonot) are so reliable. Schools usually 
give a former bagrut as matkonet but we all know that the kids download these 
tests (incl answer keys) and practice them at home prior to the test at school. 
So we can't really call them"unseens" anymore; today most bagrut papers have 
been "seen" by most students either with or without the help of a private 
teacher... Personally I find it a bit problematic to give so much weight to 
such a test.

Are Magen tests really necessary?
[I know of schools that have stopped giving them and just wait for the 
Bagrut.
