Many people upset on our side to lose a base too (EWR).
I stand by what I said (actually I revised it to 50% which I feel is more accurate). The training was not good and the success rate was not good either. Out of 12, 6 made it to the line. Maybe it was an anomaly but it seemed the class before and after had similar issues. It could also depend on who your examiner is. There are a few that are know to be MUCH more difficult, especially on street captains. YMMV but this is my opinion.
