Is it 100 bucks for a lifetime membership?

Also, how useful is PreCheck? I'd heard sometimes the lines are longer than normal lines. Do they make you take off your belt, take out laptop, etc in pre check?

Also, how long does it take for them to evaluate an application and tell you to schedule an interview? I don't live near an enrollment center, but am spending the summer in SF so I figured I could stop SFO on the BART one weekend and do the interview.
