The post has been here a time, I hope the initiator still keeps up on it. I did the same, knocked off all 3 tests in 1 session. However, I had 30 years of radio work, and knowledge, and was finally working the code when the FCC dropped it. I went and took the tests in Pomona Calif. back-to-back, and like you, passed all of them at the same sitting.
Passing all 3 tests at one sitting is a rare accomplishment, and when you walk out of the test session, and there are still people there struggling on their Technician tests, you have mixed feelings, well I did. I wanted to help these guys make it too. So I joined a club, and help the other Hams doing projects, repairs, elmering a bit.
If you have that gift to really know radio and electronics, become an Elmer and give that gift away, as you learn a lot doing it, sometime life values and relationships, and not technology. You will really feel good when you help some teenager get a tech license, or help an 80 something oldster solder some tiny SMT board repair because he cannot see it very well.
JML AF6AU happy Holidays.
