    (d) The Practical or Clinical Examination shall include the following parts and procedures and be graded on criteria as described below each examination part or procedure. Listed criteria are to be accorded equal importance in grading. Equal importance does not mean that each criterion has a numerical or point value but means that any one of the criteria, if missed to a severe enough degree so as to render the completed part or procedure potentially useless or harmful to the patient in the judgment of the examiner, could result in a failing grade on the part or procedure.

    1. Class II Amalgam and Class III Composite on Patients. This part of the Practical or Clinical Examination shall consist of a preparation procedure and a restoration procedure. The following areas will be assessed in determining a grade for each procedure:

    1.a. through 4.(j) No change.
