Has anyone else looked at the new exam?
I am curious if it's the same style/difficulty as the previous 3.
I have the new one sitting in the dashboard and I want to plan my time accordingly.
Last exam I took 3 years ago took me over a couple hundred hours.
Hoping the time commitment toned down a bit!

Where exactly do you see it?
|
I was gonna post the exact same thing. As they were highly debated last year with relation to the time involved to complete them, I didnt even try to open it yet. Last year's Silver I opened it up and I just couldnt dedicate the time needed for it- it was overly complicated compared to tests just a couple years ago.??

Until they revamp the tests to be indicative of real world scenarios, I will remain at my current level. Which is Cubic Zirconia?

"Until they revamp the tests to be indicative of real world scenarios"? ?
What do you mean?? Since one of my programmers attempted the Masters entry level certification test last year, we've had at least a dozen clients come up and ask us to program a dynamic floor plan seating layout on an airplane that has the ability to play blackjack between the different zones.? You're telling me you haven't?

I too have had multiple requests for multi dimensional lighting control and also a new intergalactic heating zone layout and control RFP just came out from the Vulcan planetary housing authority.
Please feel free to contact me if you have?any questions or if I can help you in any?way
Have a great day.

Honestly, I don't know what you guys are whining about...These tests built for real-world projects.
But for those of you who still don't understand the obvious fundamental applications that are clearly defined in these tests, I asked a friend to make a short video to help you all see the application in working form...

That's funny, and true.? This was discussed in our silver group discussion.? It almost seems like one upmanship from year to year for internal giggles rather than real world scenarios.
I'm all for a challenge, but let's be reasonable.
I'm also not sure why they won't give you a syllabus or something similar that gives you the concepts you might be able to study before you start the time.? It's entirely pointless to keep that stuff secret.

They need to find a way to test us on advanced concepts without spending 90 days while holding down a full time job.

Maybe I'm weird, but I thought the flex pod thing was fun.

Classic! The encabulator was a bit after my time there in the late 90s. Glad to see they finally perfected the principles,

Still hoping for a use case for the Request to Speak system that I did for the Gold Exam in 2019

I was down to do it but I have a life (kids) and a house (maintenance) and 90 isn't enough?

That just made my day!? Nate L

Good news!? The Encabulator has been upgraded, to the HyperEncabulator.? Allow me to elucidate:
?

Personally, I’d just like Crestron to sort out supply issues and meet demand. ?The rest can be parked for now….?

And for anyone who hasn’t met the original Encabulator…
