I just got out of college months ago. Tomorrow I have a programming
test with a company as a prerequisite for an interview. I feel my
prior education will save me here, just wondering if anyone out there
can give me any advice for these or even what to expect from them.
Obviously, I've taken these tests before in school, but I'm not sure
if its just going to be implementing algorithms with language of
choice, or language specifics, etc. There is also a web development
test which I assume is going to be on ASP and SQL and maybe even
ADO.NET since those were some of things they wanted for this position.

What do you guys think?
Any advice or what to expect?

Evan
