If you are asking about the in-water testing, it included a short swim, some snorkeling, basic skills (mask removal and replacement, bc removal and replacement, fin removal and replacement), neutral buoyancy, underwater dexterity (handle bait box and do a peg board task) and an obstacle course. All fairly fun stuff if you weren't being scored.

Way to Jackie. How about some discount tickets? If I would've made it, I would've had a problem with the training dates, especially if it starts Mar 12th and continues for 5 weeks in a row. I would've been unable to attend the 19th and the 26th because I would've been in Florida. I am just trying to make myself feel better after blowing the test and embarrassing myself. Whenever you get your assigned day let me know and I will try and be there to harass you, I mean give you support.

Good Luck and best wishes
