The .15 is from wink.
I have no clue what the total is that my wifey2b has.
If I had to guess Id say around .75ct
Now if you had asked bout gemstones that would have been in the 60+ct range between us :}

If they ever do expose themselves, the next game to play is "guess how many carats this/these people own?"Date: 6/29/2005 3:35:43 PM

AN, congrats to you for passing the Gem ID Final the first try. I did too, but I wonder how many people do fail on their first attempt. Don''t remember the specifics but there were two specimens that were close calls.Date: 7/1/2005 11:07:05 PM

CFlutist,
Just like you, I took the GIA home study gemology program back in the late 80''s and got my Gemologist certificate in 1990. But I never got around to taking the 3 required practical classes. So I haven''t quite made it to GG yet. I was planning to take the Diamond Grading one this year, but vacation plans got in the way. I agree with you that the final exam of the gem ID class was the most stressful, but I managed to get through the first try. At one time, I was considering changing career, but never quite found the right niche. I enjoyed the classes and learned a lot. The knowledge certainly come in handy when I shop for jewelry.
