   I had only asked about ANO so I assumed that to be the case, but may be that was a total for both ANO and traditional. That would improve the ads a little I guess :-)

    I scored an 86%. That was without studying for it at all. Now I wish I reviewed some of the Biology and A&P sections to get a higher score.I hope that will be enough. My GPA is somewhere around 3.6 - 3.8.

    OK, I feel better then. I am ok with doing the class all by myself but was not used to not having input from instructor.
