The schedule for 7-9-2021 has been published under "hand outs".  Each individual is allowed 7 1/2 minutes, two of your colleagues each completed the exam in 5 minutes so there should be no issue with time.  

Couple of house keeping items.  

Remember that everyone will perform a shoulder exam and 1 of the 3 lower extremity exams.

If the "patient" has full active range of motion, you can simply verbalize to the proctor that "if there were a deficit in AROM I would then test PROM".   You do not need to test PROM if they have full AROM BUT YOU DO NEED TO VERVALIZE PROM to get credit! 

Groups will likely go through the exam quicker than the allotted time, please be ready to test earlier than your posted time in order to move the practical along in a timely fashion.
