    Maryroberts, Was the exam sent via a survey,trying not to say too much.? I had what they said was an exam, but there was no training material with it? It was questions solely about videos and pictures?

    Nevanoo - no, not a survey. They sent test material to work through first, you need to spend several days reading & practicing and then apply for the exam. What you describe sounds like the initial test not the exam?

    At least in germany it's always the same for the last few weeks: Almost no work on weekends, monday starts slow as well, but in the evening/night quite a bit of work is available. tuesday and wednesday work is available almost all day long and on thursday it's slowing down again.

    My star rating has dropped to two, after getting 5 and 4's for the last few months.

    I'm starting to wonder if this is all worth it. I do quizzes, seminars etc etc. I don't know what more they want me to do?? How about they give me some actual work??

    At the minute it all seems more trouble than its worth!!

    Got 10 mins today. Seminar dates seem all confused too. Maybe they're undergoing some changes and things are sliding whilst they work them out?

    Got 5 stars for may as well - bit of a confidence boost after 3 stars the month before. Feels like they were basing the star rating mainly on URL-tasks. No URL-tasks that month, star rating went up.
