    Brian, yes I did…but that is for me. Again…you’ve taken TONS of tests and know what will work for you. However this exam is honed in on speaking the language the board wants to here. So one of my practice methods was writing out this sheet from memory to where I could get it all on there in 5 minutes or so. Now FOR ME I found this helped me be more methodical and calm during the test because I wasn’t “racking my brain” to think — what did I miss?. I knew exactly what I was dialed in on and moved along systematically from there. This test is about time management and speaking a unified language with the board – I have complete confidence in your ability as an orthodontist. We just got to get the board to recognize that as well!
