surprisingly, the test doesnt seem that hard as described below. I didn't go to MIT, but all i can find is a brief description from an article by Mike Aponte that states the below
"The most difficult and the highest level checkout is the BP checkout. To pass the BP checkout you must play basic strategy, keep the running count and calculate the correct bet according to the count and the number of decks remaining. In addition, you have to watch your payoffs. If you are ever underpaid or ripped off, it is automatic failure. To top it off, during the last two shoes, team members harass you by forcing you to talk with them. The purpose of the harassment is to simulate some of the many casino distractions a BP has to contend with. After the BP checkout, the final phase of training begins. "

Does anyone have information on what this test actually consisted of? just want to see if theres anything that was missed above and so i can see if i can pass it myself?
