Low score but im happy.
Threads and gridBaglayout(there were lots of questions about it) were my weakest points.
IO were basically constructors based questions, i got 80%.
Lots of tricky flow control questions.
--------------------------------
I want to report a software bug.
You do not need to click exactly on the checkbox to get it checked.
So, if the "exhibit" window (this is the window where some long codes are shown) is active and you click out of this window to make the question window active, once you clicked the checkbox wrongly selected.It seems to me that the software captures the row clicked and not the exact(x,y) mouseEvent position.
Dont know if I made it clear, but be careful.
thanks

Congrats on passing, the score isn't what's important it's the fact that you passed!!
I dont think that's a bug in the software. All of the constructors for the Checkbox take a string as the label/title so it actually becomes part of it. I am thinking it is supposed to exhibit the behavior you described. It may be just an effect of the way the class is written or it may be intentional for people that may have trouble clicking inside the actual box.
Again, good job on the test...
