What battery of tests did they run, if you are so inclined to speak of them?

Hard to remember everything, but it included a number of motor exercises... having me stomp my feet really hard, tap my thumb and index finger (both hands) together as fast as possible, opening/closing hands as fast as possible, some basic toe-to-heel walking exercises. She also had me hold my hands up, fingers splayed, and looked for any detectible trembling (beyond what might be considered normal). There were probably a few other things, but I can't remember it all.
