Dr Howard was the only person that introduced him/herself.
Nobody else learned or used my when addressing me.
The physical set up of the pre-exam room was very uncomfortable.
Everyone was very friendly and all in all, it was a positive experience.
Simply needs some attention to detail and a little polish on people time.
