If you follow AIM recommended entries, you'd have a hard time leaving the protected airspace.

When I used to give checkrides I had FAA guys recommend different ways. Some were okay to descend once you hit the holding fix...some wanted to see course guidance.

I never knew this was debated. Were the FAA guys of a mind to fail applicants for not doing it their way, or did it remain a recommendation?
