Thanks for taking the time to write your suggestion; in most cases it would not be difficult to implement, BUT--
About 2 years ago, we made a major overhaul of our test engine. The overwhelming goal was to not have to associate and store any information with any particular test user, to not have to store any data to the hard-drive, etc. to maximize speed and to minimize sources of instability and crashes.
This put some real limitations on how we do things. In particular, we can't pull questions from more than one chapter at a time, and we can't customize the subset of questions.
This version of the test engine has run very well and smoothly for us, so we've been reluctant to do any changes that would require deep-down changes. Besides--for most people, such level of customization would merely be a luxury. Biology is probably the main exception, but there's really no reason the questions should load that slowly, even for most dialup connections...
I would recommend writing what question number you want to skip to, and just using the Jump feature to jump ahead to that question whenever necessary.
Good luck on your test!
