The problems will only be found by those who score the highest on the exam, because most of the problem questions deal with more difficult topics.

If you remember any of the troublesome questions, feel free to let me know about them. I suspect they have not yet corrected the questions (since we only discussed them last week).

You are, of course, correct that a test like this cannot be a completely adequate judge of ability. However, remember that you fall well outside the normal curve. You should rank as a guru in nearly any ability measure, so a general test such as this will be less precise in your case.

Of course, if the interviewer is very Perl-knowledgeable, sample code and test problems will always be better. But, for any interviewer who may be less technically qualified than the interviewee, another tool is necessary. I think Brainbench makes a good tool in that case.
