I asked the proctor many questions. His response was always the same
and it made sense... "Did the lab book ask you to do xxxxxxx? If it
did, then do it." 8)

Larry,

I personally suspect that far too many candidates ask far too few
questions of the proctors.

As you probably know, the proctors are there to help clarify
instructions. By definition, if something can be intepreted in more than
one way, the proctor is there to remove ambiguity.

So, then the issue becomes can you articulate the multiple ways
something can be intepreted? If you can, you have a legit question for
the proctor.

And, by taking the mental energy to consider the different ways to
interpret the task, you'll probably discover on occasion, that, in fact,
because of other info elsewhere in the lab booklet, the task can only be
done in a particular way or either way is OK.

But, I think the process is important. By thinking of how the question
can be interpreted, you'll probably gain insight into what really needs
to be done.

But, don't be hesitent to ask the proctor. In your previous example,
I'm sure the proctor would give you useful info.

HTH, Tim
