Developer readiness system
Know your level.
Know what to fix.

One real question. Graded here.
Every problem in the bank carries a hint, a verdict, and an explanation of why each wrong option is wrong. This one isn't recorded.
Table Orders(order_id, customer_id, amount), where the amount column can contain NULL values for a few rows. Which expression returns the total number of rows in Orders, including rows where amount is NULL?

Straight answers
What this is, and what it isn't.
- Will this get me placed?
- No tool can promise that, and we don't. It tells you where you stand in the five subjects interviews test, and what to fix today. We don't recruit and no company sees your scores.
- How accurate is the figure?
- A measurement of 10 questions, not a prophecy. The arithmetic is under every score, and a topic scored from one question is drawn faded until you've attempted three.
- What's free?
- 1 diagnostic a month and 15 problems a day, every subject, every explanation. Paid adds unlimited practice and retakes. No timer on that.
Fifteen minutes from now: a figure, a gap, a fix.
Free to start. No card, no timer.
