I just finished doing all the Imsportz Admin hits that were available to me. I probably shouldn't have where I still have some pending from them, but, I took the plunge!

 

I still don't understand their qualifications.

 

I don't either. When I first got the qual it was a 5, then after two more hits it went to a 22 and now I'm at a 35. They say that one number is no different than the other, just a way to have multiple hits up for different workers. The hits are all the same, I guess I won't complain until whatever qual number I have next time doesn't have any hits available.

I just took their qual.... I got a value of 5 for some very odd reason and you need a 32.... It asked for the head coach of Abilene Christian University women's basketballl.... The website clearly states that the head coach is Julie Goodenough, so I chose that as my answer.... So I know for a fact that is is right... what should I do?

Their qual scores are categorical, not ordinal.

Argh. Stats finals flashback.

 

Yeah it says I need a 32 and I have a 39. Hmph.

 

I think that is normal. Most people that I know of got a 5 when they first took the qual. One number has no greater meaning than any other number according to the requester.

 

Reminds me of Garth.. he get tired of doing it on his own and hire smartsheets? Never know.

 

Hey everyone, for the Cloud Labor Hits, if you didn't pass and want to try again...

I don't think we have to know everything (or anything). We don't really have to understand what they are saying. Just look for words that tie the mutation and the gene/protein together. Look for things like cause and effect, because of this, this happened. This is linked to this, etc.

That's how I've been doing them. I had to ask my daughter, who is taking AP Biology in High School for an easy way to do this and that's what she said and I got the qualification.

 

But now it says I'm not qualified to do the HITS... I think its BS.. I just sent them a message.. I guess we'll see if they respond.

 

Well, to my surprise, I got a 62. Yeah, I know that's not great, but I didn't understand any of that crap! Haha

 

Not sure if repost, took about 8 minutes.

Yeah, that is how it was when I first got the qual too. No hits right then to do! I know they do answer back but it is a pretty general email. I think I remember reading that someone emailed them and asked to get their qual number raised, so hopefully they will up yours to a number that is available now.
