If you just want a cert to put on your CV to show off to employers and bolster your ego try www.brainbench.com Their CF certification is about the same, and your score will be listed/ranked as well, so you can even boast about your ranking if you like.

It really doesn't mean a whole lot, and it should not be an indicator of how much you know (or do not), as Snake noted, it is not exactly a test, not like we took at Uni! I think if you took it now you would pass no worries. If I were were you, I would save your money.

Something that people (esp contractors) my find quite useful to have.
