Default MOS Core exam

No you did not answered them correctly, if you did you would have scored
100% . What I meant was that to me "specialist" means somebody very skilled
at what they are doing (although it obviously has been watered down in the
US where everyone's a specialist A/P Specialist, A/R Specialist etc) however
the knowledge for a core MOS exam does not fit that criteria, it's no really
tricky excel questions in the exam like complicated formulas or VBA

I know I answered them all correctly. I can't say the same for the Word

test,
taken the same day. I got 873 on that one and thought I should have gotten
lower.

As for the value, it is REQUIRED for my job that I pass all the exams for
Word, PPT, Excel, and Outlook. Also, I was MOUS certified for 2000 Word,
Excel, and PPT and had it on my resume. It was one of the reasons I got my
current position.

I guess it depends on what you do, where you live, etc.

obviously that I did but I did not and I accepted that I intepreted some
questions differently? Besides it is of no use really, no real excel

skills
are tested, just run of the mill. It might look nice on a resume but

frankly
an exam which you can basically look up answers before hand is not worth
much to me (one can buy books just to prepare)

Has anyone had this experience? I know for a fact that I answered

everything
correct on the Excel exam yet only got 900. A few folks in the office

had
the
same experience.

Just curious,
