My attention span is way to short to read that article, and then take that test.
I would never find something like that enjoyable. I took one glance at all the text I had to read, hit the next button, and realized I had to answer questions from the text on the prior page.
Not enjoyable.
That is my reaction.

Thank you for taking the time to participate Mchart. In the instructions it clearly stated that you will need to read a short text (about 600 words) I assume you didn't read the instructions. The short text is only there to be used for testing both applications. You could subsitute the text with anything else, the idea is self assessment, to move away from static multiple choice quizzes which doesn't reflect user's true knowledge as you can guess the correct answer. Your time and effort is much appreciated.
23 to go.

I did it ^^
Cool thing, altho I would never use it, because I have learned to learn things differently.
One remark: the sound when you 'take the letter' is really painfully annoying...

whats the difference with your application.
if you dont know it in the basic you have 25% chance to be correct (if there are no minus points for each wrong answer).
In your application everybody can get some points for entering a letter or 2. Besides, you already know how long the word will be
