Method 9 can be used before or after the fact of a flub. For example, any upper level C/S to get an OK to C/S should M9 the C/S Series, restudy and starrate and do in clay as a basic action in Qual. Or an Auditor who is flubbing on Assessment gets M9 on the Assessment pack. Or a Supervisor who is flubby gets M9 on key MCSC materials. In each case, the materials word cleared must be restudied and starrated. | Method 9 can be used before or after the fact of a flub.

Word Clearers must be specifically and extensively drilled to do M9 (or M7) so that they can read a text and pick up any and all physical manifestations at the same time. Only then is an OK to do M9 (or M7) issued. | Word Clearers must be specifically and extensively drilled to do M9 (or M7) so that they can read a text and pick up any and all physical manifestations at the same time.

The fact of having had material word cleared using a different method does not prevent M9 being used. In fact, it would not be unusual for specific material to be handled first with M6, then M9 then M4, if one wanted to be very thorough. | The fact of having had material word cleared using a different method does not prevent M9 being used.

In order to ensure application, all Word Clearing must be followed by a restudy of the materials word cleared. Word Clearing clears the material so it can now be studied and applied. | In order to ensure application, all Word Clearing must be followed by a restudy of the materials word cleared.
