@Rustler I have to jump in here because you are putting people down who have taken these tests. These tests are NOT easy.
The advanced test, in particular, is difficult. Now, was I thrilled that I had to identify myself after all these years to prove who I was to keep my ProAdvisor site listed? No. But apparently, there was an issue, or Intuit would not have had to ask for this identification.
Have you taken a look at the new testing? A lot has changed over the years. You can no longer take the test over and over and over again.
I, for one, am grateful for the ProAdvisor program. It has generated business for me. The leads come from the site and you are listed based upon how many certifications you have, as well as a list of other things you need to do to stay at the top of their list. Every year, I read the pdfs and watch the videos. I can honestly say I learn something from that content every year or I am reminded of a feature I forgot about.

But don't come down on those of us to take the time and take the tests year after year.
