After much chazara and learning through the nights, eleven bochurim from New Haven Zal completed a comprehensive 50 question written test on the first 2 Prokim Maseches Sanhedrim, a grand total of 23 daf.
The program began after Purim when the bochurim of the advanced girsa class began to go over all the material that was learned since Chanukah, with a trip planned for all those who make it all the way through. The program took off with the help of their Shoel Umeishev, Yosef Engel and continued successfully until all 23 daf were reviewed by heart.
After the 50-question written test, the bochurim were then tested orally with a thorough test by Harav Yosef Lustig, menahel and Rosh yeshiva of New Haven Mesivta. All the bochurim passed with flying colors and did phenomenally well on both tests.
Bochurim that were tested are Shmuel Amar, Mendy Berger, Yechezkel Fershtman, Yossi Greenwald, Mendel Metzger, Avremie Rapoport, Avremi Sapochinsky, Shaya Skoblo, Shnay Uzvolk, Yitzi Zelenko, Menachem Wilhelm.





Continue the amazing work!
