I did get the feeling the questions were chosen, perhaps unintentionally, to create a natural bias towards those who have a formal CS education. Contrived example: Someone who came up with a quicksort algorithm independently, and is completely aware of its operating conditions, but chose to call it mysort instead, would be unable to answer the question in the last test despite having all the theoretical knowledge needed. There is, of course, still something to be said about being able to use terminology that is shared with others, but that changes the nature of the test in ways I'm not sure the author intended.
