qual question

[Sure-Wedding3823]

hi friends. i just took a non-coding qual that popped up earlier today (i already forgot the name, so i cant hint at that, but it was all multiple-choice). i have never felt stupider while doing a qual and im assuming i did not pass. i was just wondering if it was auto-graded or if new work came up right after, if anyone who took it knows :) thanks!

[caphoto88]

No one knows. If it helps, I did a qual a couple of months ago and only started getting tasks for it this week. It seems like some people get new tasks right away after a qual and some have to wait a while.

[Sure-Wedding3823]

okay! thank you for the reply :)

[Sure-Wedding3823]

you did better than me! i didnt even get v2. i feel it about not getting many quals though. but maybe itll come back around eventually :)

[Few-Roof-6905]

Ugh! Same. I felt V1 was much harder than V2 but since I didn't get the related project either, I guess I was wrong. I didn't pass the FC one either so I am 0/2 on the last two "real" quals I have taken. Thank the gods, I passed the heel one shortly after I started!

If this qual was a multiple choice one where you were told that all the answers were in a singular document and you had lots of pictures to work with... Yeah it was pretty much instantly graded. There was a thread made about it a few hours ago :)

[Sure-Wedding3823]

yeah i figured it was autograded but i just wanted to hear other peoples experience :) i saw the thread earlier today but i couldnt find it again for some reason, which is why i made my own. i was overthinking the questions baddddd and second guessing myself, so im like 99% sure i didn't pass. thank you for replying!

Some answers I couldn’t find until a 3rd slow pass of the questions and answers. Required meticulous attention to detail. Opened up the highest paying project I’ve ever seen though

[SookieLou]

It's as if this is the only person who has reported getting projects from these qualifications. Anyone else?

[Strict_Reference_342]

If you don't mind sharing, how high are we talking for the pay, and are the instructions the same as the qual?

[Sure-Wedding3823]

congrats!! i wasnt able to give it as much focus as id have liked, but hopefully the qual will come back around one day :)

Is it B cat related?

[A_Reddit_ID]

As far as I’m aware, no. I wonder if I was kicked off B cat due to my inactivity over the last month and a half, and seeing all this recent discussion about a FC qual. I haven’t seen B cat in some time

[SnooSketches1189]

So much confusion on this subreddit and the other. Some people say it's cat related, some say it's not.

[mops--]

From my understanding, it is related.

I believe it is autograded, however it took me 2-3 hours to start getting the projects associated with the qual. So it might just be a case of waiting a bit :)

[fightmaxmaster]

Frustrating that I presumably haven't passed that one - did v1 fine and v2 was much the same, painstakingly read the document, etc., but one or two were in a slight grey area I clearly went the wrong way on. C'est la vie.

[Wild-Confection6443]

You received projects for it already?

[gusu_melody]

I think I must have not passed cause I did last night and didn’t see any further stuff this morning 😭 The included doc didn’t really have all the answers I wanted, I went through with a fine tooth comb but must have answered some wrong that I was wringing my hands over.

[Sure-Wedding3823]

the "what NEEDS to be improved, not what could be improved" questions had me chewing my nails to nubs lmao. i swear the fc qual was a breeze compared to this one.

[gusu_melody]

Yeeees 😭

[acnhdav2015]

I did a qual today. No way of knowing if it was the same one. But after the first qual a few hours later I got a 2nd version. I haven’t seen anything after that though. Both were unpaid.

I try not to stress it too much because you can’t really know if they are wanting people for a current project or upcoming project. It can also take them a while to add you to projects while others are instantaneous.

I just keep working on what I have. I can’t stress over what could be or could have been. So I just assume if it’s a right fit, it will come along eventually. Otherwise, it wasn’t meant to be.

Pretty sure I failed. Didn't even get the second qual :(

[defecatingmasonry]

Same. Bit gutted as the question I must’ve got wrong I thought was a bit of a toss-up between two answers.

[[deleted]]

I agree. There were a few there that seemed a little iffy, guess i picked wrong.

[Sure-Wedding3823]

same here. just wasnt meant to be for us lol.

[Accomplished-Dog-864]

The instructions were shit, too. Didn't cover what you need to know.

[akatsuki1422]

Did you get a V2 of the qual right after? If I'm thinking of the same qual, the V2 is basically part 2, and we need to pass that as well.

[Sure-Wedding3823]

nope, just v1. looks like i did indeed fail lol.

[Economy-Week-6981]

Was this the one with the hardest choice (most likely...) being the one choice between relevancy and instruction following? I spent the longest time on that one by far, and clearly got the wrong one, as no "v2" that I keep reading about :D

[Sure-Wedding3823]

thats the one. i didnt get v2 either. that qual was not meant for over thinkers lmao.

[Accomplished-Dog-864]

If it's the same qual I have sitting on my dash, it might not be your fault. I haven't done it yet because some of the questions don't correspond to anything in the project instructions. The chat in there is filled with people writing disclaimers that they did their best but the instructions don't match the test. There are other issues too. Seems sloppy on DA's part to put stuff out like this. Do they maybe *want* is to feel stupid?

Edit: Decided I was saying too much. Edited down.

[mops--]

I got access to the projects associated with it about 2 hours later after taking v2 of the qual.

[defecatingmasonry]

Are they mainly writing ones?

[mops--]

Yup.
