http://blog.newsweek.com/blogs/popvox/arch...illionaire.aspxMany of us have been through it ourselves (six for me). Kurt Soller's account is interesting, if only for a few details that seemed out of whack based on my own experience.
He
wasn't allowed to keep the pencil? (I was.)
He could have taken the test several times in the same day? (I thought it was just once.)
Not to sound harsh, but Mr. Soller made the whole experience sound extremely stressful. It's not that big a deal - you pass the test, or you don't. You pass the audition, or you don't. End of story.
But speaking as someone who passed the written test five times, and flunked the sixth, some of the questions he quoted from his test gave me pause. Have they ginned up the difficulty level?
Then again, one of the message posters does offer a rather sneaky-sounding way to prepare for the WWTBaM written test. (Not that I'd ever do it, of course. Probably. Maybe. Perhaps.)
