mechanical aptitude test
 

shouldn't take more than 10 minutes or so.

80% 'passes' and 85% is average.

I got a 96%, missed 6 & 11, and I'm blaming that on their shitty drawings (no measurements given in 6 and unclear in 11)

.

i suck i got a 50%, i would have gotten 100% if it weren't for the gear/pulley questions. I missed almost all of the for unknown reason. I also rushed. I got everything from that section on correct :(

I'm retarded: 78%... but I know I guessed on all the electrical diagrams. I'm gonna have a great time with MS:td:.

100%....#11 wasnt unclear to me...

Damn...78%

ok i feel stupid, how the hell do i suck at gears so bad. im going to retest :rofl:

You know, that test minus the electrical diagram questions was exactly like the ASVAB I took in high school. So you're just a product of your environment. :)

If you got everything else right, I'd say you have more than enough aptitude than it takes to splice a handful of wires. You'll be fine.

ok 84% that time. jesus.

damn, 76% but i did rush, and i didnt look what i got wrong, but i have a good feeling what i did wrong

heh, got a 74. That means no one should listen to anythin I say on here.

I got 100

Damn 76%.
I missed the easy ones.

88%

Ehhh. 94% but I am a psychologist, not a mechanic.

Mark

90%, but they aren't too clear.

the fans will rotate in same or opposite? well do they mean same sitting side by side or same facing each other?

oops on question 44, I thought it was air in the pipe, not water.

%84

i missed all the super easy ones, i missed the fan one too...wtf who thinks of this shit...i was surprised to get all the electric circuit ones correct, i had no clue, process of elimination, lol

86%, neat test

100%, but a few answers were based on testing skills, not true knowledge. and that balance beam one is just plain WRONG, the B crate would need to weight 60lbs, and that wasnt a option.

90% -- Freakin fan

what was the answer to the fan i didnt check my answers. :rofl:

Same rotation? You would think it would be reverse, because they were facing each other..
I also flubbed on the worm gear one. I'm such a bonehead :gay:

82%, I would argue with some of the results though, like the fan one. The electrical ones killed me. The

66, i suck

74%. Apparently, I suck at pullies.

82% here, some questions were unclear. I didnt understand the terminology on question 7. The problem for me was what is direct drive and how could it be distinguished from a reverse drive?

80 percent. A little retarded on the first couple pulley questions apparently but finished them well. The planetary gear system caught me. My initial thought was that it would rotate, but as i thought about it too hard i decided it would lock.

That and I reversed the two battery questions...realized it when I got to the second of the two and just went with it.

Edit: Oh, and I'm an artist...not a engineer. :gay:

82 % and to think I do this shit for a living :vash:

92%

Attachment 215648

98%, can't believe I missed the worm gear one. I guess I just got careless.

84%

For some of the gear ones I had to use my interlocked fingers to decide which way things go. I never did take physics.

108% :bigtu:

109

74% ha, I cut gears for a living, so a lot of it was common sense for me. although direct drive/reverse caught me off for a little bit. technically with an idler it wouldn't be reverse.

I missed a few at the end as I was rushing cause I need to go get ready for work...

66%

I suck at that game

I'm cool with being second place to Philip. He does pwn this place. :bigtu:

yeah i scraped by with an 80% efficiency, the gears were easy (took my time and swirled my finger in the air), had no idea on the electrical (except for that gate/breaker one), and the fan would be pushing the other fan in the same direction, because the air is moving the same direction

I actually got like a 50 :rofl:

Me, too. Being the sort I am, I had to go get out the box fans and try it out.

Most (for me), were easy and obvious. Being in engineering, some of this stuff has to be, or I'd spend all my time figuring out what I should already know.

The fan question is wrong not matter what answer you put. IE they give no relative position if I remember correctly

Yep. I got that one wrong. Fuckers. I also got the voltage in parallel wrong, confused it with resistors in parallel; choose 6 volts w/o thinking. Duh.

72%
I don't understand how pulleys work mathematically. I missed pretty much every question which required math.

90% here. The fans were facing one another. I don't understand the pulleys much either man.
