I think you are correct here.

I took the advanced in the Fall of 1996, when I was on a sabbatical leave
from my college teaching.  I had professional work to do then, but spent
lots of time on studying for the Advanced test, since I felt that if I
didn't do it then, it'd probably never get done.  HI!  HI!  And, I agree:
The older Extra theory test was certainly a lot easier than the Advanced!
