#23-27 RADAR (whatever the last 5 were) = NOT cake

from what i can remember from a few years back:

u will have at least 3 conflicts (1 probably on the screen when u sit down)
u will have arrivals and departures from VKS and GWO
u will have 1 military change of destination. make sure ur scope and conflicts are good before u go calling flight service.
u will have someone hit one of the restricted areas or MOA
u will have a pointout to one of the low sectors climbing to high. NWA or SWA, can't remember which is the slow climber

advice:

don't freak out about the insane amount of strips that are printing out. i ended up with 2 rows of strips left after the problem
tell your damn r-side to put the guys through the gate. don't play hero trying to corrdinate apreqs on guys not following the loa. let the r-side buy off on stuff instead of u trying to hook them up. they cannot fail, u can
if something flashes on ur scope, FIX IT and move on. ur not dead in the water. 3 in my class passed with a flasher
stay calm and get your inbounds knocked outta the way.
find the first conflict before answering the first ring for a release. it'll be already on the scope or very close to it.
make sure ur phraseology is dead on. anything close and ur phraseology will decide it. i've seen it happen to the guy next to me. he had a flasher, but knew what he was doing the rest of the time and SOUNDED awesome.
don't forget to block with the sector to the northwest if u have a byerly departure.
stay calm and bring an extra pen
don't cuss under your breath. ur evaluator has u hot in their ear and they will hear it all, even if u think your whispering soft enough. trust me on that one
did i mention to STAY CALM
