Mechanical Aptitiude Test

There were a good 10 questions that were ambiguous a couple that were just wrong: (50 psi is a PRESSURE not a FORCE, and at least two of the pulley questions had ropes coming out at significant angles from the bottom pulley which changes the advantage).

Still I've had enough practice at figuring out what people MEANT to ask to get 98%. Missed half of the same 4 part gearing question everyone else did. You just had to have learned the nomenclature somewhere (assuming they're not just wrong).

And yet I can't get my motorcycle running...

Yea but I can't suddenly change the way I think. When I see a question I analyze it and see there are more than one answer "depending on" some un-specified paramaters. ...lew...

I didn't care for the question on how the cylinder is filled. Sure, atmospheric pressure fills it but that pistion going down is causing a lower pressure area inside the cylinder that makes it work.

I missed three, two I could have noodled out correctly if I tried a bit harder, and the one I disagree with.
