Anyone else taking the online qualifying test for Jeopardy tonight?
I'm hoping they include some questions from Celeberty Jeopardy on SNL.

No. Maybe I should!
More details? Thanks!

I'm getting in a late, 30 minute cram session right now.
Ken Jennings is going down.
I think I hurt my brain.
I probably got 5 out of 50 questions right.
Sorry to hear that...was it the same test for everyone? What was on it?Originally Posted by Raisor
Time already passed. Thanks though!
I knew 8 or 9 questions, took educated guesses at 5 or 6 more, and sat there dumbfounded for 15 seconds at the other 35.
I'm just not as smart as I look, apparently.
The clock got me. I AM ASHAMED OF MY PITTIFUL PERFORMANCE AND ASK FORGIVNESS FROM MY FANS HERE ON RAISORZONE.COM.

I missed out. Might try again tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up.

so... "Automatic Points" wasn't one of the categories?

All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.
I took the test last year and thought I did really well at the time. I didn't hear anything for months and months, however, and forgot all about it. Then, at the beginning of November, I received an email saying I had passed and inviting me to an interview in Pittsburgh on December 7.
Unfortunately, my capstone presentation for my Master's was also on December 7 (I checked, and there was no way around it), so I had to opt out.
I had planned to take the test again last night, but when I went to the site to register I discovered that if you are invited to an interview, you have to wait 18 months to retake the test.
Maybe next year.
