The default is specified in /etc/inittab like this:
id:5:initdefault:
You can change that 5 to 3 (after you've booted) so that subsequent boots while you're testing automatically start in run level 3 instead of 5. Don't forget to change it back to 5 when you're done.
This is really good chunk of information, thanks for sharing
