I just failed the Java quiz (LOL). It was kinda hard because you have to know very intricate details about how the compiler works. To me, this kind of quiz proves nothing. It's nothing more than a flair badge on your profile. Useful for recruiters probably, useless to the companies hiring you. Our job is much more than memorizing syntax. edit: I also took the C quiz and passed but I've never written more than 200 lines of C code in my life. Would you hire me based on that information?

Americans are obsessed with tests, though the tests are out of touch with real life.
