Well, it seemed long - About 5.5 hours, including taking the written test. We started at 1:00. Class was scheduled till 7:00, but that included allowing some extra time for slower test takers (my guess). Husband and I completed the test about 6:30 or so. The instructor graded tests lickety-split as they were completed, so we knew immediately how we did (passed, no problems), and we were out the door.

Storage requirements? Nobody told me there would be storage requirements. How much storage will I need? :headscratch
Just enough, and no more!

Sounds about right. Not sure about the instructor licking and spitting on your tests, though-- yuck!

There is no topic -- therefore any attempt to stay ON topic, is a violation of the rules!
