I know there is another thread about the example test.

But has anyone actually taken the test ?

Was it worth it ?
My company is paying for me take it..

I've read the sample stuff. It seemed to me to be a test in knowing obscure and pointless crap. Honestly, who cares what count() does if you use it on a string?

A noob who's willing to rely on PHP's dodgy type juggling and pass a dubious variable into count without first checking it's an array? :p

Yeah seems to heavily based on the symantics and abstract syntax cases..

I'd like to take it just because there's only one other person in Ohio who has passed it. (ok, I guess I'm making the wild assumption that if I take it I would actually pass it :D ) But the $200 price tag (that would be funded by yours truly) seems to be urgently needed elsewhere.

I'm learning C# at the moment for a laugh, and, having used PHP exclusively for the past few years, I can honestly say type juggling and seriously dodgy object implimentation has turned me into a proper lazy bugger. Its like learning to program all over again..

All good fun though..
