Are there two lucky people who can claim that since their show was hosted by Pat Sajak, they can try again?

And there are those who did R & R J! who never had Alex as their master of ceremonies either.

Paging Art Fleming's ghost.......
I'm wondering whether I should take this, wait for the next College Test, or just screw it and try out for Wheel.
-
I took the college test back in October, can I take this test?
-
I remember taking the online test when they first had the test available and it was only available to people in and around LA. Does anybody remember when that was? I don't want to disqualify myself.
-
The one that was national last year was in March of last year IIRC.
-
I definitely took one last semester sometime, and it's likely the October one Tad was referring to. I assume I'm not eligible to take this one.

I emailed the Jeopardy! help team, and I asked them that if I took the Online college test last fall does that disqualify me from taking the upcoming online test.
They emailed me back with their answer.
It does not disqualify me, I can take the upcoming national online test.
I'm registering now.
