How Did You Do?
---------------

If you answered at least six questions correctly, you've done fairly
well.  We recommend you send for a preliminary test which you can take
at home without supervision.  Although this preliminary test is not
required to qualify for membership, many individuals who have
successfully passed the supervised qualifying test have stated that
the preliminary test was extremely helpful in preparing them.  This is
especially true if it has been some time since you have taken any kind
of timed, written examination.

Remember, on the supervised test, you must score at or above the 98th
percentile.  You should feel comfortable and at ease with the types of
questions which will be asked.  The preliminary test will not contain
any of the same questions as the supervised test, however it does
contain similar questions and may help you get used to the process of
test taking again.  To receive the preliminary test, send a check or
money order for U.S. $9 to:
