Other Ideas
This is a good opportunity to introduce a rival cadet team for the
players. Put all the character rivals in this team. They should come
upon the cadets as they're about to finish the last test, which would
(naturally) put them over the top to win the tournament.
Outview
I ran this adventure with three PCs, who had an easy time resolving the
skill tests. I suggest upping the computer terminal questions by 2 to
Moderate (6), except for Test 4 which can stay at Routine (4). Change
the Search for cover to Routine (4), Moderate (6), and Moderate (8) for
+1, +2, and +4 cover. Perhaps change it so that taking a test is 10
minutes instead of five. Up other target numbers by one.
