Don't forget to identify the VOR. Once (not on the checkride though) when I knew I had set the correct frequency earlier, I didn't bother. Unfortunately the instructor had managed to sneak in a frequency change while I wasn't paying attention to the radio stack.
Spent minutes trying to understand why the instrument refused to make any sense while the b*gger in the right hand seat did his best to contain his laughing.
On the check I was questioned on the NDB but it was just the basics: "Can you tell me our current QDM to XX?" "Good, now fly to QDM XXX". "Great, you can take the hood off now".
