    Noticed that on MSDN there's a link to this section here: http://www.msmeasureup.com/test/home.asp[^] If you scroll down there are some online tests. Anyway, I thought I'd take a peek so looked at the Rich Client one. Well, I got pretty bored after about 5, and (although I got 1 wrong), it said I'd still scored higher than 61% of those that took the quiz. Therein lies my point, 61%! I got less than 20% overall! Come on people, do the rich client quiz and lets see if CP can dominate the scoreboard :P -- Paul "Put the key of despair into the lock of apathy.

    I got 40% right (not bad, considiering it's all VB(R) DotNet(R) crap(R) skewed.) But scored better than 74% of those that took the test.

        I got 67% right. It says I scored higher than 98% of the rest of you. ;P

          This assessments remind me of those Cisco CCNA assessments. eeem let's see. One question - four answers - the chance is 1:4 that I choose the right answer. ;) Not bad! By the way: I know nothing about Rich Client. What is it good for? ;) bond006

                63% (19/30) You scored better than 95% of those that took this assessment. Not bad huah!, that too for 2 month old .NET (C#) newbie. :-D

                  I got 38% right (Better than 71%). Where I really scored poor at was security/deployment. UI was 83% correct. Form/Ctl interaction was 68% correct. Security/Deployment was 0%. (!!! :(( ) At present, I have studied absolutely nothing on security, and not much on deployment. Even though it was a rich client test, almost half the q's were about security. [I've been doing .NET for 2 months.] BTW, I wish they'd do it in C#.

                      Tried it again with no further study and got a much better score (much fewer security q's). :-D I really need to read up on security. Form/Ctl interaction: 100% UI: 50% App Logic: 67% Security: 33% 18 out of 30 correct.

                        Just for giggles, I didn't answer any questions. I scored better than 50% of the people. Talk about brainwashing. I'd rather shoot myself in the foot than develop applications the way their questions imply. Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.

                            In 13 minutes, (never having touched any form of .NET) I scored 23%, which is better than 61% of people. :eek: scary... Paul ;) I have been afraid always.
