Yeah, I've seen people post in here about a particular course they couldn't find, and I looked it up and found it quickly. Some people do not know how to google or find information and I think that is why there are so many wrong. I think some people just look for the course description as the class name instead of finding those keywords in the....course description! Because I have found all of them, other than those mobile application descriptions that were not successfully found, in a short period of time. I'm not saying there are no scammers, I'm sure there are. But I don't think there are THAT many scammers. If someone is good at explaining things or something, maybe they could make a thread to help those who are not Google savvy.

I understand that, but Mark has posted a few times about the matter on here. So I am just reiterating that info again.
Shit. I just did 3 b/c I didn't click "details". I thought we weren't supposed to be able to do those batches? Sorry guys. =-( I thought it was fixed again.
there can be a "tie" according to the direction. you rank them as a group but obvious "567 :aeee56^&*" is just as hard to read as "%^&*7899*....:::" and give you no information at all. I rank these the hardest. Then there are ones that give the correct information but just have bad wording...tthese i place in the middle. I leave the top 3 spots for the identical phrase (watch for punctuation) and reworded phrase with correct info. obviously the identical version would be easiest and if the rephrase has all the needed info i toss that in first also. but 2 and 3 i use for bad grammer and random words being tossed in/replaced.
there is a thread elsewhere in this forum... but i really don't leave this thread, all my tips/advice get put here...
Dang, I didn't even realize that was the qual batch... i never check. I just see Medcrowd and start doing them. I did about 30, never cut me off...
I just wanted to say that the ONLY reason I know these are all different schools is because of my hubbys college football playing in the background. I can't tell you how many times I'll see or hear the Florida Florida game and I'm like "are they playing themselves?" LOL.
Watch your qual score. The last time I got into a qual batch by mistake, my qual dropped to 70 and I had to ask Mark to fix it.
Title: Online Study on Helping Behaviour (approximately 10-15 minutes)! Requester: Vanessa Bohns [A9ATOERH4YSSV] (TO) Description: Researchers at the University of Waterloo (Canada) are conducting a study on helping behaviour Reward: $0.50 Qualifications: HIT approval rate (%) is not less than 95, Location is US Link: https://www.mturk.com/mturk/preview?groupId=2WSQHOVR14IX602J0N8EIWAB03Y765 [size=-2]Powered by non-amazonian script monkeys [/size] 8 Mins, I read slow.
And good advice it is....some of your tidbits yesterday convinced me to give Rubins another shot yesterday and I was able to actually find professors for 3-4 schools!
Yea thats what happened to me again...fail Mark is going to block me at this rate. He changed my score back to 85, and sent me an email saying dont do the qual anymore...of course i got the email after I did the qual, SO im back to 70...arg
He responded to questions I had and said that he would be grading the qual batches, hopefully, tomorrow and updating scores. Edit: He has gone for the day, so nothing will be issued until tomorrow or later.
yeah, knowing college sports is a surprising help on these hits. or remembering the influx of junk mail from colleges after the psat test and thinking WTF is WASHINGTON U doing in ST LOUIS or WTF is MIAMI U doing in OHIO...
