I got it. My first WOMBAT ever. I'm so excited. Its bloddy difficult, i mean where do get the answers from. I do wish i had Hogwarts, A History to learn.

Folks who aren't getting it to work, are you in the right day yet? Maybe it works after midnight and on the 13th. If it's not the 13th yet for you, then it won't work. Just a guess. It was my first Wombat too and it was really hard!! Most of it was guessing. BUT it does bring up a few tantalizing questions!

That was exciting. I've never done a W.O.M.B.A.T exam before....VERY Harry Potterish....what fun. I just hope that past W.O.M.B.A.T exams become open for examination after this one OR that more are created in the future, because these are great interactive fun for all ages and really build up the Potter spirit. Gotta go to bed, stayed up WAY longer than I should've to sit the exam, and didn't do my maths homework...:(. Tomorrow morning on the train it is then....But Hey, it's not like I WASTED my time or anything, it's HARRY POTTER...The biggest USE of time EVER! YAY! ^-^!

OMG!!!!!! I opened and took it!!! it was a little hard but... whatever.. im SO glad i was able to open it... I couldnt get my results but whatever You have to click on the england server in order for it to work.. not the US one.... HAVE FUN!!!

It's not working for me!!! :( I can get the symbol together, but when I click on the actual test, it doesn't open. Grr.... How long is it going to be up? I'm going to be gone for the next 3 days...

Yep. The site is officially screwed up. Clicking the fly does absolutely nothing (it doesn't even fly off as usual).

Dang...shouldn't have slept through History.

It wasn't that hard, but I had a hard time with the ministers... Fudge and Millicent were the only one familiar. I can't remeber everything that goes on jkrowling.com like Wizardof the Month and stuff. Plus, English is not my native language, and they don't quite have Seriban...

Yeah, that part was Terrible!! How are we meant to know them ones?

just a few general hints for the people who can't get into the test. (I managed fine, but I've had grumpy browsers in my time) first delete cookies- the meta data that your browser keeps about the sites you visit- like history and remembered passwords and stuff- in most browsers you get to it through Tools> options. if that doesn't work then restart your browser (close and open) then try restarting your computer. Hope these help... the test was fun... at least I had enough time this time, I could go through my answers and I felt better about them... Good luck everyone!

I thought it was quite difficult... I hope I don't fail :(

Oh i so got Troll :'( some of them are just insane man! lol after all that hard work, and no i dont think it has anything to do with it being the 13th coz when i got into it it just turned to the 14th. Its def worth trying WWW.jkrowling.co.uk then clicking on the enter site that has the british flag on it. i hope its okay it was harder than the 2nd one and i got E on that but failed the 1st lol.

Okay it worked for me! You just have to go in through the UK version and not the "accessability version" thanks for the help guys. Have fun on the WOMBAT!

Blankey asked: That symbol is driving me crazy! What is it?! I read that it was the symbol on the spine of bk 7!

I know what is it? im too lazy to listen to podcasts or anything and i dont know any theories with it in!

Same ive been at it for ages and nothings happening, can someone please help!

If any of you can't get in, try www.jkrowling.com/en. DO NOT use the 'accessable' site because the RoR doesn't work there.

how do you make a new acount?? heelp please

to christianaeg: thanks a million! i tried d .org n it worked. dat stupid fly turned into a key at last! hurray! WOMBAT here i come!!!!!!!

*How to get in* : OK, I see some people have problems to get to the test, so here are two tips that I don't think anyone has menioned: 1) If the "do not disturb"-sign is not on the door, and the fly doesn't fly away when you move your cursor to it, then press down the mouse button with the cursor on the fly. Don't mind that the cursor didn't change to show you that you can click on it, and don't just click it. Hold down the button. The fly should now be a key. Move it to the keyhole before you release the mouse button. Now you should get in. 2) Once you have finished the symbol (according to the instructions), you have to click it before you can open the test. ------------------ ------------------------- ---

It worked 4 me!I have never done W.O.M.B.A.T. before but it was FUN:)I liked the Dark Art questions!The first part was not easy ....I will see what I`ve done later:)I wodner when the results are going to be ready... Good luck guys !!!

i ended up having 2 codes for the last one so i think i mite do it again...am i the only one thinking of doing it twice? either way YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!

I FAHAHAHAIILLLEEEDDD!!!!! My History of Magic SUCKS!!! I only know that I got one question right for sure. I'm okay with spells and stuff. Oh, and does anyone know the cure for the Draught of Living Death? I put 'No Cure' even though I know it's most likely wrong. I got an "Exeeds Expectations" on WOMBATS 2, but I'm going to get a 'Troll' on this one. Oh well. It was fun.

That was great, I do hope it works this time... Never got to take one or two.

OMG!! for those of you who tried everything you could but yet failed to change the fly into the key.. this is what you gotta do. 1. go to www.jkrowling.com 2. intead clicking " ENTER ACCESSIBLITY ENABLED VERSION", click on the UK site.. then click the fly and it TURNS INTO A KEY!!

It was rather difficult, I think. I wonder whether I should have refrained from answering some of the questions, considering that some answers could make you lose points... Oh, nevermind. I'll hope for an A. The animagus-question seemed tricky... And the one with the ministers of magic and the events was difficult... I could only pair Fudge with the correct one, I guessed on the other ones. Not that those were the only questions I guessed on... Well, I passed the earlier ones, we'll see about this one.

For people who still haven't got the fly-thing worked out: when you go to the site, DON'T CLICK the 'enter enabled version' button, but click on the UK flag. Then it all works fine :)

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOO! i just took it =D think i failed but w/e! it wuz fun xxoo- fred_georgeLOVE 37!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! days!

just took the test!!! i wonder how i did. i wish the questions were more relevent to the plot of the book though, but oh well. is there a way to take the first and second test?

someone help me... how long will it take to sumbit the answers??

ok i've gotten past the fly part, but when i got to the shapes, i can't get past it! i'm stacking the triangle on the line, with the circle on top of the triangle, then i'm clicking it. is this correct? i heard that when it glows, you did it correctly. someone PLEASE help! i really wanna take the WOMBAT!!

Mmmmmm. Tough test. Hope I passed. OMT

i can't get the shapes in order... when ever i try to put the circle on top of the triangle it doesn't stay HELP

I thought this test was a lot easier than the last one. I bet I did pretty well. I have alwys loved JK.com, it is such an interesting site, and you know that nthing is rumored!

THE SHAPE YOU MAKE IS THE SYMBOL ON THE SPINE OF THE UK BOOK!!! GAH I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!!!

Hi guys, if you're still having problems, here's what helped me. When you go to jkrowling.co.uk, don't enter the accesibility version, but the 'normal' version, so click on the flag. I hope this helps good luck !!!

I wound up taking it anyway. I'll use my real ID went I get home. I was really hard. I'm not confident that I did well. But that always happens, so we'll see. Good luck everyone!

maybe something in the test will help us figure out the symbol as it was part of how we got to take the test

does anyone know what the symbol looks like??? that's the only thing keeping me from unleashing my mad wombat taking skills.

With the symbol: You have to put the circle on top of the line, and then the triangle on top of that in that order. You have to get the position of the circle on the line right first - try putting it slightly further down from the middle. When you get the position right you should get blue sparkles. Then sit the triangle on top. Blue sparks again, and the symbol will flare and move to the side of the WOMBAT paper.

EVERYONE WHO CAN"T GET IN LISTEN TO ME! I COULDN'T GET IN EITHER AND I WAS VERY UPSET. BUT IF YOU ENTER THE UK VERSION OF THE SITE I'M TELLING YOU IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES YES YESSSS I have to go to school now but as soon as I get home I will definetly take this test YESSSS

I think I'm going to get 'Dreadful'... too difficult, some questions were totally unknown for me. Mind and reasoning weren't enough this time...

The fly kept buzzing away from my mouse no matter what i did, i couldn't click on it. So people were saying to go to the uk version, i did this and then the "do not disturb" sign was up. But it wasn't before...then i went to www.JKrowling.net and it worked, the fly was still as a statue and everything went smoothly! So if anyone is experiencing those problems...i hope this helps.

I've never "tried" the W.O.M.B.A.T. before.. going to in a second :D

In order to get it to work don't click the accessibility enabled site and make sure to click the one with the british flag. you are at the wrong one if you don't see the red and green containers in the room of requirement. I thought its interesting that the symbol you make with the shapes is the same one on the UK children's cover that was talked about on a mugglecast when the cover was released...it must be important

woooo that was definately my fave one!!!!!

OK MAKING ME VERRRRRY UPSET. THE SYMBOL STILL WON'T WORK. DOES IT GO FROM BOTTOM TO TOP: LINE CIRCLE TRIANGLE, OR LINE TRIANGLE CIRCLE. AND YOU KNOW HOW EVERYONE IS HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE FLY, DO THINK THAT THE SYMBOL FOR ME ISN'T WORKING FOR THE SAME REASON? BLAKJVL;AKE;MFAKVA HELP!

I don't remember my last student identification code and nowhere does it tell me to create a new one, so I have no clue what to do :( A little help please
