I just got interested in the way the school 42 works. Especially the month-long "test" that they have to accept tuition free students. The idea is to make you complete a lot of programming projects in languages and tools you normally don't know at all. When you start. The evaluation does not only take into account if you finished project but also if you helped others, knew how to look for help (basically: google or other students). Its goal is to select students who would work well in a peer-learning project-based-learning paradigm. This, in my opinion, is much closer to real-life conditions than any academic test.
