I am probably the only one who cares, but hell, that's the reason I'm doing it in the first place - in case I need it later.

Note that this is based on current script from eAthena's stable branch. It is very likely that your server owner was too lazy to compile latest branch him/herself and simply used ready binaries which are almost certainly outdated.
This won't change the choices you need to make, but will change some of the wording. This shouldn't be a problem since the order in which the possible answers appear will be the same, but you have been warned.

The test itself is pretty simple - each answer gives a "job point" to one or more of the jobs, and at the end the jobs are "pitted" against each other and the one with most points wins. Just pick the answers which give points to the job you want. If there's no answer which gives points to your job, pick whatever you want.

And why take the test in the first place? First, because it's there and takes sixty seconds. Second, it gives you some nice(For a level 1x/10 Novice that is) items related to your job(Most importantly a basic weapon and 7 Phracons to upgrade it to +7). Third, it warps you not only to the city where you can jobchange, but right in front of the job changing NPC as well. If you want to be:
Taekwon - Get the Archer job, as your job change is in Payon.
Gunslinger - Get the Swordman job, as you can fly from Izlude to Juno and from Juno to Einbroch.
Ninja - Gravity hates you. There's no way a Novice can obtain Cyfars other than asking/begging/trading higher level players. But you should get a Merchant job nonetheless as the NPC to warp you to Amatsu is in Alberta.

If you want to be a Swordman, don't bother reading this. Just spam enter.

yaaa but then all you really get is an adventure's suit (i think) its pretty lame

It's still nice to know since some servers give you more if you complete it and go with the class they gave you.
