| No sure about HoCo but in MoCo, birthday has to be earlier than October 15 or you can't even try EEK. |

In Ho Co it's Oct 13 (my son's b-day is before that).
It's very encouraging to hear exam is not all that bad, especially not really stressful, and some kids do pass it. So far I was told in Ho Co either noone or just one kid passed in last several years because they keep plank very high (and I was told in several daycares (when I was looking for one for my son) to not even try it because it's impossible to pass). I wonder if those exams are very different depending on county. Anyway, thank you for all the info. Good to know I'm not the only one.

OP, there is a lot of information about the EEK requirements in Howard County here:
