You may be overthinking it. They only have one shop that I think is well worth it (since there are 4 locations in my area). The rest are low shop fee and you get reimbursed either a meal or a small item. I really like the company. I have always had great communication and they pay like clockwork.
I took my test late one night when I was too tired to put much thought into it. I passed on the first try. Good luck, but don't sweat too hard over missed shops. You are not missing any big bonuses!

Sinclair was one of the companies I signed up for in a huge blitz of signing up for MSCs back in the day. I passed the silly tic-tac-toe test the first time by some miracle. Then again I have computer programming experience and debugging often involves figuring out exactly what the computer is doing, so maybe that helped without me realizing it.
Gigi has a point though, Sinclair is a good company, it's a shame they don't have more clients to shop (I've only shopped the one pizza client).

I also failed the XoXo test twice and I got an email from a scheduler offering to help me with finishing the test and getting me started as soon as "today" but its now been nearly a month and still didnt get it resolved yet.
I didn't have any problem with Sinclair, but I couldn't pass the GFK test. I sent an email and a lady replied that I had been unlocked and can take it again. I haven't tried yet.
Someone suggested reading each question out loud while taking it and it worked for me, I passed it on the first try....about 5 years ago. In my state, they have a lot of jobs with fair to good pay.

Another one of those SAT test that make your eyes cross! Passed it, but not much work around.
I don't even remember doing a test like you all describe when I signed up with Sinclair! I just remember the test for their yummy warm dough product shops. I like my yummy warm dough products with cinnamon and sugar, and icing dip.

They have a few decent shops in this area. Getting all the shops to show up is a bit tricky. You have to punch in zip codes that you will work in and then assign a radius. I finally ended up putting in about 30 different zip codes in my area to get all the shops listed. They have a great tex-mex grill shop that I love, and the pretzel shops aren't terrible. Pay isn't great, but it's a great meal in the middle of a long day of gas stations.

LOL!!! I just failed the test 2x also! I just over thought each question and kept on changing x's and o's, o's and x's, o's and o's, x's and x's! Its like a reoccurring nightmare....it's all I see when I close my eyes! The problem is ...I don't want to wait 30 days.
oh well...look! a squirrel....I must chase it! Enjoy!

I did not have any problems with this one. I passed the test (whew) and have performed shops for them.
All I know is that I passed all the tests I was interested in and after doing the slew of shops twice, I was not interested in doing their shops anymore. They were mostly high-end and purchase and return.
Yes, the fee was not something to talk about.

Sinclair Test I was talking to myself after taking that damn test, I actually got mad at myself thinking I can't be this
dumb. you are right all those X and O anyway after about an hour and a glass of wine I figured it out
and did it again and passed. But I know what you mean

I'm the odd one out, I guess. It's been a while but if I remember right I passed this test the first time. Dumbest "entrance exam" for an MSC ever... but I did pass it.
I'm SO glad to read these posts as I failed too the first time and was miffed at the whole process. I even let my account go dormant as few months but then got a email to get back in there and since have seen some very attractive shops in my area. I've only done one so far.
I think the MSC's really need to make it a little more reasonable to get started. I'm not against it if they demand a short open book type of test if they need to see if you understand what's required, but a few MSC's come off like we are in Kindergarten. I suppose those companies must run into a lot of shady shoppers. My favorite companies ask for a well written paragraph which to me would show them everything they need to know.

I remember that test being intimidating! I like Sinclair, but they don't have much around here. Some high end home/kitchen shops, a Mexican (ish) joint, and a pretzel company. None of which are high paying, but their forms are simple and I will occasionally pick up their shops if it is convenient for me. I was expecting more after that intense test!
