Written exam... check!

[Update: The missed question...]

I took the written this afternoon, and got a 97! I missed a question about minimum height AGL for flying over a wildlife refuge; I answered 2500', but the correct answer is 2000'. So I'd add some extra buffer for the cuddly bunnies and badgers, I can live with missing that question.

Super special thanks to Husband who quizzed me on the meteorology stuff on the way to the testing center since that was the section I studied least recently. The vast majority of the questions on today's test had to do with weather! Can you believe it?! Opposite-Murphy's Law, I reckon...

If you're in this area, be advised: the LaserGrade testing fee at Hampton University's Department of Aviation is $60, as compared to the apparently standard fee of $90.

Yay! :)

Now for the oral test practice, after a good rest...

You obviously know how to prepare for tests!
Outstanding work!
Rx for the practical- a great night's sleep and a positive attitude go a long way!
I have no doubt you'll do as well as you did on the written!
Good Luck.

Congrats on a great score!

A 97, huh? Doesn't surprise us! I remember our girl was in high school and responded to a question about why she gets such good grades with "I got a B once and I didn't like it." It was not her last B, though. She only graduated magna cum laude from engineering school.

Yes, we're proud of you.
