We know what info that you need to know, but we don't know if they hand us a paper and we hav to write down info or if they give us a scenario and we have to figure it out. Can someone who has been to this event and done it tell us what u did?

I haven't done it before so I'm not sure but I think it's a written test with some small scenarios and some info you need to know...
