    Usually your graded on the # of pull ups. not the time unless it goes from breakfast to lunch. You can do it. Take two deep breaths and relax, just tell your self you can and you will.

    My trainer stood behind a fence and used mirrors from the sun to signal when to turn the wheel. Every time the examiner would look over he would duck down. I passed. Then, the next day I backed into a truck and ripped the hood off at the truck stop. Now, I stock groceries at Wal Mart.
