There is a new test that was developed for the 2012 rule book, the old one is no longer in use. There is no need to "correct" for the 2012 rule book, it was written specifically for the 2012 rule book.

That is correct and it was distributed to all BB instructors in Alberta. Alberta has notified the instructor that he is using the wrong exam.

The skills you acquired over the weekend are perishable. It's important that you get out as soon as, and as often as, possible in order to maintain (and improve on) them.
 
Did my BB last month as well. Your enthusiasm for the sport will triple after you do your first qualifier. What a great bunch of people. I did maybe half more learning being squadded with a bunch of experienced guys. Lots of smiles around, lots of tips freely shared, lots of laughs at mistakes and applause at great performance. And a wide range of people, ethnicities, etc. Okay, 90% guys but a handful of competing women and many seniors competing too. And wow you saw some great shooters out there. Sometimes I thought I saw a shooter skip a target but it turned out he had shot it somehow when I didn't notice. So fast!
