By the way, I DO get that the asterisks are where the answers should go--but usually crosswords use blanks or something.

Ignore all of that! I'm in! I'm in! I've passed the exam!

Exit is the answer. Email "exit" to examSPLAT sri-uk.org and after a while you'll get an acceptance email.

Oh, it occurs to me that perhaps the text of the reply is significant, so here it is:
From : examSPLAT sri-uk.org <exam>
Reply-To : examSPLAT sri-uk.org

The Correct answer was

‘Enter / Exit’
Sometimes traditional logic fails us, and we must look elsewhere for answers.
We will contact you soon.

I emailed Exit also and got the same response. My question is did they want two separate emails one with Enter and one with Exit? Or would one email with Enter/Exit have been good enough?

carmenmiranda, it's not working for me. Did anyone else get what carmen got. I put exit in the subject and in the body of the email. Did I not do it right?
I got the same old response we got before.

Yeh, Enter/Exit works fine. -I think that's the intended answer (good solve carmenmiranda btw!) But sending both separately seems to work ok as well.

Methinks that the answers are checked are responded to manually, with the 'Thank you' email as an auto response. -Hence your lack of confirmation email.

I sent in 'Enter' before, and this time I sent in 'Exit', and got the 'you've passed' message. Maybe you need to send two separate E-Mails/the same E-Mails containing the two answers?

Wow! Nice solve, carmenmiranda!
Never would've thought of that.
I guess this shows that SRI's going to be testing our creativity as well as traditional puzzle solving. Thinking outside the box.

sent both enter/exit and exit by itself and got two blank responses
Maybe they have a limit? But receiving a completely blank response is a bit odd

The Correct answer was Enter / Exit

I sent 'enter' as my first answer, then a few days ago 'enrol',
then I emailed them carmenmiranda's solve 'exit' at about 2200 last night.
(fantastic work on that one cm)
I have not sent anything that looks like 'enter/exit'
