WOMBAT part 3 now up!
According to the site, "The Grade 3 WOMBAT is the final examination, and the most difficult. Not only is the subject matter much more advanced, but the examination is also more stringently marked. Certain answers will LOSE YOU MARKS, so choose carefully..."
We recommend you try to figure out how to open the door on your own, but for instructions, click here.
1. Click on the fly (on the window). It turns into a key.
2. Drag this to the keyhole.
3. Stack the shapes on top of each other: Triangle on line, circle on triangle.
4. Click this shape, then click the exam paper to begin.

how long does it usually take for results to get delivered or in the post?
7th_horcrux- about a week after the door closes!
I can't seem to figure out the triangle and lin and circle thing so HELP!!
Lyn_Potter- put the circle on top of the line so the line goes through the center of the circle. this could take a few tries. they will sparkle when you get it right. pick up the circle/line and put it in the middle of the triangle. the circle should be in the middle and the line should touch the top corner of the triangle! it will sparkle when you get it right! good luck!
First put the line in place, then the triangle, and the circle last. Then click on the assembled symbol. Does anyone remember from the previous WOMBATs when the clock that tells the status changes to "Papers Being Marked"? Because I took the exam yesterday, and the hand is still at the 12 mark, and I want to know if I messed something up now so that I can retake if necessary.
DailyProphetAce- the clock won't change till about a week after the door closes, so we'll all see how badly we've done at the same time! :)
Thanks, I wasn't sure if it was until after the door closed that the clock changed or not. I was just a bit paranoid, with this the last part and all. (Plus I really want to know how I did! I think.)
I've cleared the cookies, I've tired jkrowling.com, jkrowling.net, jorowling.com, and jkrowling.co.uk and none of these website will let me click on the fly to get in the door. : (
LadyLynn, try going to jkrowling.net and then entering through the UK version (instead of the Acessible one Americans use)... I had the same problem until I tried that.
for those of you who are having problems with the fly: hold down the mouse. i was having trouble too, but i did that and it worked. also, who else was jumping down when they saw what the shape was? ITS THE SAME ONE ON THE SPINE OF THE CHILDRENS UK COVER! there was a huge discussion on it on mugglecast. i guess they were right, it is very significant!
Goto http://www.jkrowling.org/ en/ it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
but like... how do u get the student identification code?
I couldn't get it to work at all until I went all the way back out, and instead of using the "Accessability Enabled Version", I clicked on the British flag. Then when I went into the room with the door, I saw that my plant on the table was almost dead and the potions were back. That's when the fly would finally turn into a key. Hope that helps! Good luck!
is it possible to take the other 2?
is it possible to do the 1st and 2nd tests, i just did the 3rd and would like to have a go at the others ....cheers
I'm afraid you can't do the first two tests now. Each test can only be taken for a few days when that door opens for this purpose. Perhaps, after these tests, she will put them online again or perhaps give us all the right answers! That would give us loads more information about the wizarding world which somehow never came out in the books.
I just noticed that the symbol that you make with the Triangle, Line and Circle is the same one on the spin of the British Deathly Hallows cover what do you think it means?
FOR ANYONE STILL HAVIN PROBLEMS GETTIN THROUGH THE DOOR, GO TO WWW.JKROWLING.NET AND CLICK ON THE BOX WITH THE BRITISH FLAG SAYING ENTER SITE, IT WORKED FOR ME, GOOD LUCK, P.S DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THE TWO POTION BOTTLES DO ANYTHING?..
EXCUSEE MEE....but does anyone know how i can take the first 2 tests because i missed them...help me please :)
Why is everyone asking the same questions for the billionth time???
i opened the door but i havent taken the 1st 2 tests... is there i way i can take them now???? cos i really really really really wanna take them
Can you take the first two tests? No, you missed out. Read through the comments to answer your questions. There's a high possibility your question has been answered already (There's like 572)
HEDWIG79 with the potions bottles put 6 drops of red and 3 drops of green and you will get a surprise that goes in your scrape book =)
why do so many people use the accessibility enabled site? you cant all be disabled... surely you all speak english and use the english one? weird...
Still can't get the fly to turn into a key. Tried clearing my cache. Help!
*CRACK* [apparates] My, my, my....it never fails. Each time a W.O.M.B.A.T. exam appears, people freak out. I guess it's due to the excitement that people do not calm down and READ the comments. Of course you don't have time to read through 575+ comments, but the answers to most of the questions are within any 10 comments posted. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE FLY: Try the different versions (.com, .net etc) of JK's websites. Click on the British Flag to access her site, do not go to the "Enter Accessibility Enabled Version". Once you are on the page with the door, the fly appears on the window, click on it and hold the mouse button down. It will turn into a key. Drag the key to the keyhole of the door. The door opens and you will see the W.O.M.B.A.T. exam paper, along with a gold circle, line and triangle that are scattered over the exam and desk. Click on the triangle and drag it to the line. Drop the triangle over the line. Click on the circle and drag it to the traingle and line; drop it over the circle. Blue sparkles will appear; click on this shape (YES...it is the same as on the spine of the UK children's DH bookcover). The shape moves to the upper right; click on the exam paper...follow the directions. You have 35 minutes to sit the exam. You will be provided with a student ID AFTER you've taken the exam if you do not have one already. If you do, it will prompt you to insert the ID number. When the exam is over and the W.O.M.B.A.T. can no longer be accessed, the clock on the wall will change to "Marking papers" (or however that is worded). The clock will stay like this for a couple of days....THEN the clock will change to the last position saying papers are being delivered. We then will be able to get our grades...all this (based on the previous two tests) will take about 5 - 7 days. And lastly, NO YOU CAN NOT TAKE THE PREVIOUS TWO TESTS. They've been closed. Sorry. Hope this helps for all. Good Luck. :)
CORRECTION: When the results are deliverd by owl post, the clock will be at "Results Delivered". I've just visited the "Clock Room", and I had forgotten that both exam #1 and #2's certificates are framed and sitting on the wall. For those of you wondering what the shelves are for, they are for our results. I'm guessing the left shelf is for an acceptable passing grade result (which were in envelopes the previous two exams) and possibly the right shelf is for a failing grade result? Not sure... My, it sure has gotten quiet this morning (8:30 am on the Pacific Coast/USA).
The fly isn't working.......this is frustrating!!!!! =[
LunaIsMyHero: Try just clicking regularly on the fly...don't hold down the mouse button. Providing you've entered through the British Flag instead of the accessability enabled version.
GUYSSSSS...mine didnt work either....nut just try the text only UK version and it'll work!!!the fly thing and everything will work
Can't click on the fly? Go on jkrowling.ORG Then DO NOT click on the Accesability Enabled button. Click onthe first to the left button below it, it should say ENTER SITE, with a British flag on it. Click the eraser. When you enter the RoR, The table will have potions instead of a vase, but that doesn't matter. You canclick on the fly, at least I could. BTW, I did all of this on IE.
This test is more like a guessing game. I hardly knew anything for sure.
when i put the shapes on top of each other and i click them nothing happens......am i doing something wrongg
Hannah! So nice to see you're still around!! You're one of my favorite posters, because you make me smile!! Take Care! Good luck to everyone that sat the exam!
i'm here! i'm gonna be here for a few hours i think, so if you need WOMBAT help here i am!!
What are the answers?!?!?!? I have NO idea how I did...
lily_evans_1- we probably won't even get the answer key... we didn't for the first 2 WOMBATs!
OMFG I REEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLY YYYYYYYY WANT TO TAKE THIS TEST I MISSED THE LAST 2 (i know i am soooooooooo ashamed) but my fly isnt leting me click it !!!!!!!!!!!! OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ROCKonVOLDY- try the .net version of the site! or the .org! they're the same thing just .net/org
Darn Fly!!! It won't turn into a key. I've tried internet explorer, and firefox. I am soooooooooooo frusturated. Then I tried .com, .net, and .org. Maybe I should try my other computer. Maybe it is just this darn laptop.
magickgirl- if you have a laptop and it's not working, Do u have a wireless mouse handy??? If so, try using that. This worked for another commenter who had a laptop. Hope this helps.
magickgir- try cleaning out your cookies!
okay YAAAAAAAAAAAA it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!! heyyy where is the clock room?
you can get to the clock room by clicking the WOMBAT student ID card!
ROCKonVOLDY- On JK's Desktop, click on the Wombat card at the top of the page, type in your code, and BAM! There's the clockroom. lol
The shape wont work! Ive got the key and opened the door but i cant FIGURE OUT THE SHAPE HELP!!!
horsemadcait- put the circle on the rod so the rod goes through the center of the circle. it will sparkle when you get it right. then pick up the rod/circle and put it in the triangle so the circle's in the middle and the rod touches the top point!
thats freaking cool
horsemadcait: for the shape...its supposed to be like the triangle goes directly on top of the line so that the line is going through it, then the circle in the middle of the trangle...hope i helped... magickgirl: if you are on the accsessibilyity (sp) enabled version...that is probably why. go to the bottom of the entrance page where the flags are and vlik on the text only version with the britsh flag...it should work then
i cant GET THE SHAPE RIGHT IVE TRIED EVERY WAY IT JUST WONT WORK- ITS DODGY!!!!! or maybe its me..... no its the site. lol
