Walter,

$100 US is not a lot of money to take an exam that is well designed to demonstrate a compatency level that is indetifiable and defensible in a professinonal field.

>- I'll have to travel for about 4 hours to the examination class

I don't know what the testing center situation is in your country but here in the US and Canada there are testing centers all over the place.

>- I'll have to wait weeks before I get the results

The MS MCP exams give you the results at the compeletion of the exam right there immediately.

>- I can't do whenever I want

You should be able to schedule the exam any time you like.

I think we will have to agree to disagree on this one. My opinion is that an exam of the likes of this one is more harm than good to the overall impression of VFP in the world.

Anyone who takes this exam and believes that it demonstrates any level of competency in VFP at all is sadly mistaken. Not only would the use of this exam on a resume not cause me to consider a candidate for a job any higher than anyone else, the simple fact that they included it on their resume would cause me to move them to the bottom of the list of candidates.
