| Jan 14, 2020 at 13:05 | comment | added | davnicwil | @IllusiveBrian yeah that makes a lot of sense, definitely agree - that'd be a much better way to spend this money, if you're going to spend it at all! | |
| Jan 14, 2020 at 13:02 | comment | added | IllusiveBrian | @davnicwil That's fair, but then find a certification for something you want to learn and pay for that test. My point is to spend the money on something you can put on your resume. It's certainly going to be something most intern candidates don't have. | |

The question states the amount as $200 (USD) - not £200 (GBP), even though it's a UK company

| Jan 14, 2020 at 11:28 | comment | added | davnicwil | @IllusiveBrian though the test itself will likely be useless, studying for it may not be if OP feels the knowledge gained will help in future. And a real test / deadline / money down are good motivators for actually studying & learning fast! A certification for things they already know may also be useful, but in a different way. Or maybe the benefit of either is not worth the money. | |
| Jan 14, 2020 at 11:12 | comment | added | TOOGAM | Amen @IllusiveBrian - actually, even an expensive certification that may be recognized by computing industry may cost less than that, or slightly more than that. | |
| Jan 13, 2020 at 13:49 | comment | added | IllusiveBrian | If you have $200 to burn on a useless test, I'd find a cheap certification you can pass without any studying and go get that instead. | |
