    Dammit, there was a pop culture section? I should have woken up 10 minutes earlier and taken it tonight.

    No, I got that much. What I'm really interested in is how quickly you find out if you passed.

    But you keep up that condescending bullshit if it makes you feel better.

    Should be horsepower, but I could be wrong.

    But that's not what you asked. Seems like yours is the condescending bullshit.

    It says it's anytime in the next 18 months. Also on the first page where you register.

    Perhaps. My first reference to "score" was an honest mistake. I didn't think it warranted the response it got.

    And the second reference to "score" was in a post eight seconds after the one telling me there was no score. And then I was sent looking for something I was told was in a post above mine that turned out not to be.

    Either way, a simple, "there are no scores. You'll find out if you passed some time in the next 18 months" would have been sufficient instead of an attempted verbal smackdown. But I guess that would be too simple for the anonymous cyberworld.

    I admit I didn't read all the fine print. My test window jumped straight from the sign-in page (page 4) to the countdown clock. I registered a few weeks ago.

    No big deal. Sorry if I taxed your last nerves.

    Carry on.

    Steak, it just seemed pretty cut and dry. You asked if there was a score, we said they weren't given out, and then you asked again (as did Walter). It just seemed like you weren't reading and asking for an answer that had been typed several times already.

    Looks like I got 35, depending on whether or not they gave me credit for my panic-induced typo spelling of John "Cotlrnae" or whatever I typed.

    Did better than I thought ...

    Got in the neighborhood of 31. I'm mad about missing a few of the ones I did.

    So I have a question: Those "answers" are they right, or is that what that guy answered? Because there's no way Merrill Lynch is the right answer.
