  Yes , when I was young the written review was handed in, the Overseer marked it and gave back the papers next week (In those days a roll call of those enrolled in TMS was called every week and you had to answer "present" or there was a deafening silence if you weren't)

  A written review used to be every month.. I never took them too seriously. I know some in later years that ignored it and wrote out their shopping list on the paper.

  Growing up, I think it might have helped me cope with school tests, ,doing the rotten review so often

  I'm thinking that they changed it to the format in the KM sometime in the late 70's or maybe early 80's. but I could be wrong about that. I know we had the separately printed tests for at least the first several years I was in the org, which started in 1969. I really can't remember how long it was before they changed it, but I think I was married at the time (which would place it at or after 1978).

  The silence of the "written review" was great ... no dumb talks.
