    3/10 fortunately stuff like this is not a measure of your skills as an engineer.

    Not so good.
    Online training in engineering would help. You got 3/10 correct.

    Woeful!

    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    Surely any osmosis would be going the other way?
