I took the census test this morning!
I swear to GOD, the real test was given before the supposed actual test.

There were 15 people there, and fully 8 of them didn't have the right forms of ID, didn't fill out the paperwork correctly, or had some other problem. :banghead:

The test itself was pretty straightforward, as long as you have a good eye for detail and are able to follow simple instructions.

I almost didn't finish in the allotted time because of the stupid math problems.

If you're bad at math, PRACTICE beforehand.

2002-98.

4.8 x 56.

3.2 + .7 + 247 + 24.3.

And so forth.

Man, I sucked at that stuff in 4th grade, and I suck even worse at it today. x(

1. Good thing I didn't take it.
Gawd I suck at math.

Hopefully I can do well on the county Secretarial test I'm taking next month.

:scared:

2. I liked working for the Census Bureau.
I felt like I really counted there. :hide:
