DTS Mechanical Aptitude Test

[Thai]

Pretty cool test: http://www.forddoctorsdts.com/quizzes/MechanicalAptitude.php

It's 50 questions long...i will try it later, but i will probably fail anyway.

 

[sharp4runr]

I got 64%, a failing score. The electrical questions killed me!!! I did ok on the first gear rotation questions, but the pulley questions gave me some trouble. Shows how little I really know. I guess I should have paid more attention in physics class.

 

[SConnors]

98% here, but I'm a Mechanical Engineer, so it's kind of cheating...

 

[T?@\7]

54%

thats right in line with my test scores in physics, go figure.

 

[fetcher]

72%.

Not passing, but I'm pretty darn happy with that considering the last time I had a physics class was ten years ago.

ETA: If I hadn't second guessed on several, I may very well have passed. I always do that. Kinda surprised how much of the force Q's I missed considering that is the one of the few physics priniciples I use with any regularity in my day to day.

 

[RamThis]

Wow, right on the bubble at 80%. Great test!!! I love stuff like that, really makes you use your brain for more than a skull stuffer.... :bigok:

 

[jwyshrek]

460 points...92%

 

[Kmvreter]

Squeaked by with 420 (84%.)

 

[loner]

94%

I wish it would tell us which ones we missed....

 

[fetcher]

You can review the entire test from the final screen - one of the icons present allows you to do so. Correct answers are even given for the ones missed.

Well I guess 400 points and a score of 80% isn't too bad? Now I remember why I didn't want to be an engineer! LOL

 

[simple]

56%. But riddle me this, who can solder leds to work in their rear bumper as extra tail lights AND brake lights?

This guy.

 

[kev]

92%.... hmmm..... maybe I shouldn't have settled for the McDonalds job.

:cursin:

 

[KellyJ]

64%...no wonder I don't like being at Purdue

 

[snhrph]

I passed - 84% or 420 points.

Lost most points on gears questions. i must have difficulty figuring out which way to turn... :biggrin2:

 

[nated05]

Ouch 64%, most of my answers were based on common sense. My mechanical knowledge is very limited. Cool quiz though.

 

[SportRunner]

60% , oh well.....damit I need to go back to school

 

[Koz]

98%

I thought air was drawn into a NA engine's cylinder by the piston creating suction, not atmospheric pressure.

[04 sc V8]

Nope. Not that my score was anywhere near as good as yours, that was one that I remembered from my very limited schooling way back in the day. Air definitely enters the cylinders of a N/A engine from atmospheric pressure, not vacum. Impressive score though Koz.

My score on the mechanical test doesn't matter, I have a 4Runner not a Grand Cherokee :bigok:

I am sure if I reidrected what capacity I have left away from my superior desicion making abilities (buying a 4Runner instead of...) I might have scored more than a 420 but I like it this way, dumb and lucky. It's worked so far! :biggrin2:
