And collect $250 from two CB-Plussers! Or so he's said. |

He can, but only under the following conditions: 1. On a lark, 2. Without studying, 3. Scoring 100%, How does he prove that? A passing grade would be good enough in my book... 4. In under 7 minutes, 5. And collect $250 from two CB-Plussers! Or so he's said. Of course, but assuming it was true, it's still a pass and an upgrade. People have been known to pass the extra exam after finishing the general, as they took it as a freebie at the same VE session at no extra cost, on a lark. When I took elements 4A and 4B (Jan 2000) I got two wrong on 4A and one wrong on 4B. The CSCEs, coupled with my 1976 era tech plus, got me an extra upgrade on Restructuring Day April 2000. |

Stand proud. |
