This is what I have heard about the one day lab and retakes. I don't know
what I have listed below to be 100 percent true (but it is pretty close).
1) You must score 20 points by 11am, or you fail and cannot take the lab for
six months. (Hence, you better know your stuff)
2) With labs being booked up the way they are, just wait until 2 weeks prior
to when you need to take the exam, ...short notice openings will be
available most of the time. (obviously travel might be more expensive, but
hey, those are the breaks...roll with it)
3) Most importantly...NO PREFERENCIAL TREATMENT!
