For your FINAL test you have to break 1,000,000:1 odds.

Not sure what your preliminary requirement is but JREF is just 1000:1 odds.

I.e. to pass a preliminary all I have to do is roll a 6 on a dice 4 times.

To guess Barry's questions right, it would be equivalent of selecting one single atom
out of every atom in the Universe, such are the odds.

Which is harder?
