Author Do you comment on the exam questions?

Hi,

Just a quick question for my own satisfaction...

When I took the exams I noticed that you could provide comments on each of
the
exam questions.

Since it is a fact that even if you are correct that the question/answer
provided is wrong
it will not change your score (i.e. you will get a call saying that your
score was upgraded)
do you still provide comments on them?

What do you think?

I commented on several of the C# exams where none of the the answers
provided were correct. It was shameful that the answer closest to be
correct looked like Visual Basic code. For example, leaving out parenthesis
for a parameter-less function call. Can't remember the other instance (it's
been a while since I took the exam).

I too commented on a similar question where the answer closest to be
correct was a call to a class constructor without parenthesis. I guess they
just took it from VB test and carelessly changed the syntax. So I don't
think MS care enough to check questions we commented on.

True.

Even more 'shameful' is the fact the VB and C# exams are almost the
same, at least they were when I took them.

Always. It does no harm even if they [microsoft] ignore the comments!

They still are.
I went the VB.NET track because I already had lots of C++ experience and
didn't think
that I'd learn as much by going the C# track.

I think Microsoft should have a test on the language itself. That
should be in addition to the tests on the core areas.
