I worked on Exam I this past weekend and managed to increase my score quite a bit. I got an 88, which was much better than my previous best of 74. Here's the video:
Billiard University Exam I - Fundamentals - 88 - by Dr. Dave
The latest listing of posted scores is below. If you haven't tried the exams yet or haven't posted scores, please consider doing so. It's fun. Also, it would be interesting to see how much people can increase their scores over time.
I plan to work on Exam II this coming weekend in hopes of improving that score also.
Catch you later,
Dave
