    I had done my exam through a challenge. I had contacted one of the licensed firearm instructors in my town through the AHEIA. He lives down the road from me so I just walked to his place at a mutually agreed upon time and took the exam. I did the written on his dining room table and the practical in his kitchen 1-on-1. I guess everyone's situation may be different.

    There's no definite answer, will depend on class size, availability of space, number of instructors etc.
    When I did mine, there were three instructors, one stayed with the class while the other two took a corner each in an adjoining room for the practical which was done in order of completion of the written portion.
    Take your time, understand the given instructions (as noted above, they may try to trick you), always PROVE the firearm, keep in a safe direction and finger away from the trigger and you'll pass with ease.
    Good luck.

    Mine was one at a time. Those who got the highest score on the written test got priority. But the practical test was easy. The instructor didn’t go through everything that was taught. Just a few different things at random for each person. I think it was random for everyone, either way it was less than five minutes.

    You’ll do fine. It’s easy as hell. Just pay attention, be sure to check everything you’re doing like checking the stamp on the barrel as well as the cartridge etc.

    It’s a breeze

    Thanks
    Mine was a fairly easy process. Everyone goes out to another room to write the test. Each person gets called in for the practical. Asks you the regular questions on the test and for you to show it. E.g. if you are Trung to transport this restricted firearm, how must you transport it. Prepare the items for transport. If you are transporting it, what do you have to do to transport it in the car. Are you allowed to leave it in the car? If so, how must you leave it.

    Pretty straight forward. I actually had fun with it.

    I completely agree with you.

    The written test was done with everyone in the room, the practical test was done one on one , everybody passes unless you are literally brain dead, no need to worry

    Guys..

    This thread was posted in 2013, I'm pretty sure the OP doesn't need your tips and videos.
