I assume cadets aren't supposed to know what the test is _really_ about, right?
Also, I assume most players _might_ know.

Is this disparity of knowledge addressed somehow?

Not really. It's up to the gamemaster as to how to present it. Running it at a con or for a group not familiar with Star Trek would probably set it up as a surprise, but telling anyone familiar with Star Trek that you'll be running them through Kobayashi Maru should set their expectations appropriately. And maybe encourage them to get creative on how to try and beat the test.

Hi! The author here. The scenario leaves it very open to the gamemaster. Pretty much as Jim stated, unless the player does not know anything about Star Trek they are likely fully aware of what the Kobayashi Maru scenario entails. However, the focus is more on how the players deal with it as well as a moral dilemma that comes up. It can easily serve as a set up for a campaign depending on how they handle this test.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
