Thank you Guest! I have a few more questions based on your response, but have had trouble posting messages that are longer. It keeps recognizing it as spam. I will get back to you with some follow-up questions in the future. Thanks again,

Thanks for the reply again. As far as the technical-based questions , will they basically be trying to test my overall scientific knowledge. Could you please clarify so that I am on the same page. As far as non-technical based question, could you please provide me with a few examples. Thank you!

In addition, I forgot to add a few more comments. In your recent post you stated to get my resume in the hands of an SPE. First off, I realize this is probably a dumb question, but what does SPE stand for and how do I get my resume in their hands. Through a USPTO career fair? Also, you stated that the life science positions are very competative. I graduated with a BS in 2001 with a GPA=3.98 and I will be graduating in Dec 2006 with a PhD from UMD's doctorate program with a GPA=3.8. With these GPAs, and other awards/achievements and excellent recommendations, do you consider me competative for a position. Could you offer any suggestions as to how I could strengthen my resume and chances of obtaining a USPTO patent examiner position. Thank you!
