Only 12 days until your test date. Remember this week we are doing three Sub elements 6, 8 and 9. 9 is all the radio theory. So be on time Saturday. At least one of you was early to class already. A week early!
If you have not tried the on line exams, now is the time to see where you need more study.
See you Saturday.

I feel test-anxiety kicking in...think I'll go practice.

We'll do fine. Our Sensei is outstanding, and the pupils are too!
Peace

Sensei? You do me honor by this naming, and more so by being my student. :bow:

From Wikipedia:
Sensei (先生) is a generic Japanese term for "master", "teacher" or "doctor". It can be used to refer to any authority figure, such as schoolteacher, professor, priest, lawyer, or politician. It can be used on both genders.
Sensei is most commonly used in a school, by both students and teachers and is considered a more friendly term than calling him or her by the family name plus sensei. A male teacher Ichiro Tanaka would initially be called "Tanaka Sensei" by his students and after a while, students switch to "Sensei" or "Ichiro Sensei" depending on how Tanaka sensei would like to be called. Fellow teachers may call each other sensei after getting familiar, but when they consider each other friends, they usually start calling each other by the family name alone, the first name, or by a nickname. Females are more likely to call each other by the first name after becoming friends.

Oh, that explains it. I thought the title meant Clint was "sensei-tive" ;D

Arrigato.
Since in America, we most commonly use Sensei in the form of Master, as in Judo Master, I felt unworthy of such a title. :bow:

Of course once you get your call sign, it does have to be branded into your forearms while lifting a pot of coals :wink3:
