Microsoft Ramp Up

[NewsBot]

Just wondered if anyone here has joined the Microsoft Ramp Up program. If so, has anyone finished it without any problems?

 

I started a few months back. Have been playing with C# for nearly a year. Have been a VC++ programmer for over 10 years. Chose the Aspiring Developer track (C#) as I don't have VB or Java background and thought it'd be better if I started at the beginning. I want to go ahead and take my MCTS so I'm taking this as a familiarisation exercise with the way Microsoft structure their exams, learning etc.

 

Anyways, I completed the first 2 assessments ok and came to take my 3rd one a couple of weeks ago. However, the first question had code samples in VB. As I stepped through more and more of them I found all the code questions were VB (although the page title is C# track) and most of the questions were todo with modules that I'd not progressed to yet (ASP and data tables which I think are level 5).

 

I emailed Microsoft about this but it takes 5 days for that section to reply everytime I point out what the problem is and that it is nothing to do with what they suggested.

 

Does this sound familiar to anyone?
