She just started giving orders and seemed to only half pay attention while I was squatting, jumping on one foot, and stretching sideways, front to back, and in a circle, She checked my mouth and ears and gave my lower back a glance while I was touching my toes and that was about it. I was with her for about 2 minutes

She then gave me my folder and old me to give to the lady out front. She never said don't look in it so I did and saw that she signed the Med. Card and another piece of paper that said I was qualified. But when I handed the folder to the lady out front I asked if I had passed or not and she said they couldn't give me any information and it would be mailed to me. This was for school and it's payed as part of my tuition, so I can kinda understand them not telling me. But it's sill kinda odd.

So is this common or just the way this place does it? And do I have anything to worry about with missing one of the color blind numbers?

I weighed in my underwear but otherwise stayed dressed. He pulled out the stethescope and listened to my heart and lungs, had me lie down and felt my abdomen for soreness and swelling.

As far as: But when I handed the folder to the lady out front I asked if I had passed or not and she said they couldn't give me any information and it would be mailed to me.

She was just being the typical, low paid, officious clerk who's been working for a doctor too long. :roll:
