I run an Internet Marketing Company and have to take some tests for Google every year to keep my Google Certifications and for my company to keep it's Google Partner status.
I hate it. hate it. hate it. I hate the trick questions, the way some things are referred to with different verbiage than we might use here at the office and it throws you off, and how some of the stuff they test you over isn't even stuff we use but stuff they want us to learn about so they can try to get us to use or buy.
However, those certifications have gone a long way with our clients since not many people or companies here in OK legitimately have the certs.
I still hate the tests though.
