Divemaster Exam Question Oops!

I woke up at 10 AM and was late to give Grace her part of her Divemaster exam. Oh well, we’re on island Filipino time. I was really tired from the night before. While Grace did some of her exams, I actually brushed up on my Divemaster knowledge so I can answer any questions for Grace if she got any questions wrong.

The was a question on the Decompression Theory and RDP part of the exam that Grace got wrong and I couldn’t figure out despite doing it over and over. I believed there was something wrong with the exam or the answer sheet; sometimes there are errors in either. I decided to wait for Alli to come back and ask her about it later.

When Alli came by to figure out the question, she found out that nothing was wrong with the answer sheet nor the quiz. Turns out the question was a trick question and the answer was an exception to some rule I forgot about. Oops. I was so focused on working it out traditionally that I forgot the exception.

Later in the evening, I hung out with Maziar at El Galleon until about 7 PM. Then, we went up to the Point bar to eat the BBQ they always have on Thursdays. I had a nice BBQ chicken leg with an all you can eat salad. It was good.
