Depends on the DE

Some examiners are just so concerned about the little technicalities....almost a waste of time. Others will put you in a realistic scenario and see what you will do and or how you react.....and if they are laid back/reasonable thats the type to have because they can tell if your feeding em some crap or if yah know whats going on. If a professional examiner promotes a laid back atmosphere, it puts you more at ease too. What it boils down to....if yah know who the hard ass is, take your business somewhere else.
