You mean you stopped drinking at some point?  I didn't even pause when I took the test.  Told them it was a medical necessity, brought a note from my doctor and everything.  :)

Just wondering if there was any news on the results...

Any idea when we might find out if we passed or not?

Thanks

Apologies for the delay, we're in process of working through the beta results to determine the actual exam structure, and developing processs to manage the program.  Creating a new industry certification is a long process due to the analysis each step of the way. 

As the newly appointed certification manager, I can tell you this is top priority and we're commited to providing beta exam reults as soon as we know what they are.  Thanks for everyone's understanding and patience, and when the results come out, I'll be sure to update everyone with a new thread on the subject.

Thomas.

I got mine yesterday and will admit I didnt pass.  The 2 sections I had a hard time on I dont support (40%).  Oh Well.

Dr Zoidberg,

There are 68 certified members on thwack now.  I'm sure the large majority (if not all) who took the test are thwack members.  If just above 50% passed (as was stated in the update thread)...an educated guess would say that roughtly 120-130 took the test.

spoke too quickly...the number is now up to 150+ that are certified....I guess they're still catching up on getting everyone tagged.

Where are you seeing the 150 number?  Every candidate who passed and submitted a Thwack ID, or used an email address associated with thier Thwack ID, has the certified badge.  I see 68 individuals in the certified badge group.

Keep in mind there were some who did not submit a Thwack ID or use an email associated with a Thwack ID when registering for the exam ......

Thomas,

Weird...earlier today I clicked on the certified badge and thought I saw more...maybe I clicked the wrong one...back to 68 now :)  Sorry for the confusion.
