it says they monitor cheating and remove any unfair results.


It must be legit.

That superdude must have knew the answers, it seams imposible to read all those questions in 1 minute.....maybe it's like those guys at the auction, talk fast no one understands and they gave him/her first place, what if he answered correct and we didn't understand, just to be sure first place.....of course I'm joking, maybe the native English people to read all questions in 1 minute.


It took me 5 minute and for some of them I re read the questions to better understand them...

I took the assembly test, now it says it wont let me take the sheetmetal test, is it limited to one test only? or do you have to use an "alternate identity"

vlad

you must have used only your initials for it to show in red, I get my full name (oops)...so much for posting the evidence that I scored higher

who took 41 minutes?

I wanted to do the sheetmetal too...grrrr

I figure one mouseclick takes 1 second, how can .6s be legit ??

I think 0.6 is more like 36 seconds, because the scale as I see it is from 0 to 100 for seconds.


Only if you know the answers you can get it in under 30 sec. Other than that it takes you longer to read and understand the questions, then read the answers then click the button.

I came 4th. Easy peasy.


Top tip - have a go, then record the answers. Then log back in with a different email address. It's a lot easier with the answers in front of you.


Note - I would have done better, but someone started talking to me during the test.

 

[goosemonster]

BTW, on my first go I ranked in the mid 500's.

 

[magneplanar]

and now we know how someone got the number one score...not much of a test if you skew the results...

170 sheet metal- first time, which is funny since I blew half the questions hahaha

the guy that got #1 took 37 minutes so I think he got it legit...

cheers,

M

I figured this was just a way to convince people that they need more training. I didn't even know what Interchange was until I looked it up upon receiving the e-mail. Oh well, I guess that's why I'm the one asking the questions rather than asking them, eh?

Seems to me it's a way to market their classes. I recommend Design-Engine every chance I get anyway; their classes usually have four or five people per instructor, they're willing to stay late anytime to help you, and you can basically create your own class - whatever you want to learn, they'll make sure you know it before you leave. I don't think I'd ever pay to take a PTC training class - too much like school if you ask me. Autodidacts rule
