Here (http://topdaug.cadlearning.com/login/index.php) is a link to the Top Daug contest if you guys want to try it out.
Post your scores after you take the test.
And DON'T CHEAT!

I only had time to answer 25 of 45 and I only got 16 of 25 right. :x

it didn't record my last click... which was correct, should be 26/45
which still sucks

I took it at AU -- got 32/45 in something like 5 minutes..
And FYI, the highest score at AU was 36; the lowest in the top 10 was 33. So don't feel bad about a score in the 20's!
-
Kate beat me again!
I had a 31 at AU.... I challenged people in my office to take it and if they got higher then me I'd take them to lunch.
No one wants to even take it....

Thanks Mr. DataCAD! :evil:

That's just the thing, none of the available choices had anything about the angle so I chose "none of the above". According to the test, this is the right answer:
@8'4-5/8
I won't even get into the issue of what units need to be set in order for that to even be close but let's test that theory in AutoCAD 2002
Command: l
Specify first point:
Specify next point or [Undo]: @8'4-5/8
Point or option keyword required.
Specify next point or [Undo]: *Cancel*
How about 2006?
Command: l
LINE Specify first point:
Specify next point or [Undo]: @8'4-5/8
Point or option keyword required.
Specify next point or [Undo]: *Cancel*
-
I had issues with that one too. It doesn't include direction in the answer when it was part of the question.
-
the only option I could think of was "Point your mouse at 12, and type 8'4-5/8 <enter>
-
Yes, but even then, @8'4-5/8 wouldn't work so it would still be wrong, according to the test. And the question didn't say "while pointing your mouse in the 12 o'clock direction..." so I demand to have my score changed to 33 out of 45 :realmad:
-
agreed, the @ sign makes it not work, plus what you said

There are at least 2 incorrect answers in the test ...
#2 incorrectly states that you cannot explode a block with a negative scale ... this WAS true before R14, but ever since R14, you have been able to explode negatively scaled blocks and blocks with uneven scale factors ... Autodesk NEEDS to fix that one ...
The question about drawing a line at a specific distance in Architectural units from a starting point in the 12 O'Clock direction is wrong ... while the formatting of the dimension they have selected is correct, it WILL NOT produce a line in any direction unless you specify a direction vector. It WILL however, draw a line utilizing the direction vector produced by the angle between the last selected point and the current location of the cursor. Thus if the cursor is at a 45 degree angle (with ortho off) then the line will be drawn at that angle... all of that is presuming you leave off the @ sign .. otherwise an error is generated ...
I also misread the question concerning workspaces ... in my haste I thought it was asking if it was true or false that there ARE default workspaces, not that there ARE NOT default workspaces ...
I don't remember what the fourth one I got wrong was, but it was dealing with something that I rarely use. I wish I could remember what it was ...
<edit> The fourth question was dealing with setting up drawings ... I selected ortho, they said limits ... mine are all automatic anyway ... ever since we had templates, who does that crap anyway</edit>

I didnt even attempt it. The last online test had all feet/inches questions. I have never used them, nor would I know how to input them

OH it's easy. Your own foot is a foot long and your toes are digits of that foot.

Mine are 13 1/2 inches....I have freakish feet. :shock:

It's a bit disturbing you know the exact measurement. I can't really say in 38 yrs. I've ever measured my feet. Guess I don't go to the right parties. :-D

LOL
I just did it out of curiosity when I read Greg's post. :)

You may not have measured your feet, but I bet you've measured something else.

I just knew I shouldn't have brought it up.
Yes, my waist is in fact, 33 inches.

i missed #29 because none of the answers (including theirs) was correct all the answers were missing the vector entry. and i missed the one about exploding blocks. guessed right on a couple others
-
I took third place overall at AU. I would have had first, had I not realized after a finished the drawing first that I messed something up and when back and chaged it. Which made me mess other things up.
Next Year!!

That is ok .. because #2 (exploding blocks) and #29 (the elusive direction vector) are both incorrect on the quiz ...

BTW, unless they changed it, Question 29's answer IS correct. You all just didn't read the question properly....
To draw a line a length of 8 feet, 4 5/8 inches in the 12 o’clock direction from the last point selected, you would type "________<90":"
note that the vector angle is in the question.......
The others I got wrong had to do with 3d or 2006, neither of which I use.....

If the vector portion is in the question it's only because they've recently added it. My posting of the question was a direct cut-n-paste from when I took the quiz.
-
it is my understanding that they got thumped several times over 29 and revised the test.
