Re: test
You can stop the tests at any time that you want. A good lawyer will argue that it is a refusal by the individual to go on and the stopping by the individual would then not be able to be used against him or her. I hope this answers your question.

You may stop at any time, but risk, stopping in the middle of a test being classified as a failure of that test. Good Luck!
