I propose that *strictly for the purposes of playtest*, that PFS permit use of ACG characters at 4th or 7th level, as one would use pre-generated PFS characters, with set gp, pp, and fame levels typical for 4th and 7th level characters.
As for a pre-gen, chronicles for events using the 'playtest' characters would be usable either for 1st level characters, or for a character attaining the appropriate level. The playtest characters would not be available for play after the playtest, or for advancement during the playtest.
This would allow PFS testing of the advanced versions of these characters, to benefit both the playtest of the material, and assess their interaction with PFS rules and usages.
Clear. Concise. Easy to communicate. :)
thanks for quick response.

He mentioned that playtesting the Skald and Hunter, we will hardly see any of the actual new class abilities until level 3 (since Hunter is basically just a druid until then and Skald doesn't get the Rage powers). In that vein, I agree, and I think PFS playtests of those classes will not be as useful in differentiating the classes from core choices until higher level, unfortunately. It's probably unlikely that any but the most avid players will actually level up their PFS characters high enough by the end of the playtest period to give feedback about the unique abilities.
As a note, this is from a playtest report in the ACG. They playtested ACG classes in First Steps.
Just sayin' :)
