Taking the Norwegian test was the best thing I could have done for myself. I will take the American test as soon as next summer arrives..(I have only the tuning segment remaining)  for comparision, and because I believe its probably the most fair and most challanging of these kinds of tests around. Tune Lab can be set up to do a mock test btw Richard Brekne I.C.P.T.G.  N.P.T.F.
