So you think you are a tech wizard?

Here's a test that we give prospective engineers that want to build Chuck Wagons. Takes about 30 minutes.

Amazing how many papered engineers fail.

Should be great fun. I got a 98. Missed #11. Dumb, cause I know how it works . . . . . . just missed it. :(

Be honest, report your score, and let's not discuss the questions just yet, until we know how most of our buddies did.

 

[Cabot]

I got 360 points.. 72%. Failed.

Not too bad for a junior in highschool, right?
And I got two of the questions wrong only because I read the question wrong.

 

[Chili]

Given I'm completely inept mechanically I'm surprised I managed 62%.

 

[_JOE_]

I got 410 or 80%. Made it by the hair on my chin, lol.

 

[DWreck]

350 or 70% - failed. What's new.

 

[allthingsdirt]

84% here

 

[BSWIFT]

78%. Crapped out on the force/pulley questions.

 

[rushy08]

64%, although i stuffed up all of the pulley ones.

 

[Rotorranch]

90% correct, score 450.

:)

I scewed up a couple easy ones, just from not thinking. :whoa: And I knew it right after I pushed the submit button, but it was too late to change it then.

Very neat quiz, BTW.

[RM_guy]

I got an 88%. I've been doing mechanical design for nearly 30 years and I still get hosed up on those gear ratio and direction problems :laugh:

 

[biglou]

470, 94%.

 

[mkelly04]

400 80%

I thought I would do better then that.

 

[Moparman1539]

360points 75%

i failed....

im junior in high school... so i think i did perdy good...

 

[Canmx120]

88%, not too bad. Some of the questions could use more clarification though.

 

[ZOMBIE666]

470, 94%.

wooo I gots me a 94% too! we super smart :yikes:

 

[XRpredator]

I are not as smart as Lou

460, 92%

couple pulley questions got me, and that dang ol' worm gear, and #44.

Dagnabbit.

 

[ZOMBIE666]

Ya that damn pulley question "besides pulley#1..." I selected #1 too. Good thing it wasn’t a reading comprehension test :laugh:

 

[Papakeith]

88% 440 here too. I knew the pully stuff and still made the wrong choices on half of them.

:think: maybe I should have been an engineer.

 

[Papakeith]

oh, and question 26? nothing is keeping that third light from lighting if both switches are thrown

 

[XRpredator]

path of least resistance, PK

 

[VintageDirt]

Except for the dead short across it.

I got a 90.

 

[biglou]

I did that in like 8 minutes though. I was in a hurry. :p

 

[cnielse5]

440 or 88% But I was taking phone calls on cars and doing homework at the same time.

 

[Cman250]

82 %. I love gears and pulleys, every science project i have done in school used gears,ratios and pulleys, got an A every time.

 

[VintageDirt]

I did that in like 8 minutes though. I was in a hurry. :p

Yeah, so. I didn't even read the questions.
