300 questions in a 4 hour time period? An extra 15 bonus points if you win an arm wrestling match with Chief Marino? Any guesses?

The key had sent an email a while back that said not to read the PG for any of the PETS I/O's (which is basically the whole 218 section)...just their packet. They don't normally say that. Just wondering if anyone is going to trust them on that. It's tempting, as the PG section on property is about the size o...

I'm looking for a calendar of the classes showing which sections are covered each week. I emailed Yanosik last week but got no reply. Anybody have it? Are they offering crams?

Is anyone taking any of the Sgt Cram courses in addition to the Capt classes? Think it would be worth it? I figure it is all fair game on test day.

Around 500 people filed for the 2010 exam and 400 for the 2012 exam. Anyone think the 200-250 new Lieutenants will bolster the number that will register for the upcoming exam or will it be in the same range? I'm still on the fence about it, but I feel like I have to try once.
