The greatest benefit was being able to meet with others in a small group environment to discuss concerns and strategies. The fact that we were at different places in the test process was advantageous, at least for one who is in the contemplative stage of the test! Aprile's professional, warm, affirming, and calm demeanor, and the comfortable physical environment helped put me at ease right away. The relaxation technique at the beginning of the session helped set a calm, relaxing tone for thinking and speaking rationally about the test.
