Re: Before we start - PLEASE read the Manual!

The test starts out incredibly easy and it doesn't take a whole lot to pass, but failing multiple times picks out the students that are not serious and are showing no signs of commitment early on. Students who want to be on the team are ready when they take the test. This forces students to read the manual and it saves us a lot of time when designing and building.
