compass turns with high mounted compass (Cessna 152)

Ray,

It depends on you. Next time you are in the plane with a hood (or
substitute) on see if you can see the compass. That should answer your
question.

Most people can manage that.

I'm just starting out my instrument training in a Cessna 152 that has a
compass mounted at the top of the windshield. Here's a sample picture for
those who have never seen it, http://www.airliners.net/open.file/643201/M

Can anyone tell me if it's still possible to do compass turns under the
hood
with this kind of setup? I've seen a lot of planes with high mounted
compasses, so I imagine this isn't a new question.
