Today we give you our third fact finding case, where John plays the role of examiner and Ryan plays the role of examinee.  All of these fact finds that we released were “real,” meaning that Ryan had no inside information about the case in advance and we ran through the case as a true training exercise, as part of his practice for the ABPP Oral Exam.
