I made an error in my explanation (I was brain dead ), and I want to correct myself. Here's a better explanation of the context:
There were concerns over being objective and neutral during the evaluation of the young person in these classic testing conditions.

every attempt made to remain as objective and neutral as possible
I do not like "designed " here because it makes the last part of the sentence depend on the first, which is not intended IMHO

or perhaps better - every attempt made to remain objective and neutral - leave out the "as possible", which is rather an add-on....
