   my simple intention is to do a straight check how 'fit' i am in scheme
   without studying multiple thick books and their examples.  do you have
   any good hints?

You can pick some Scheme code out there and read it, with an eye
on adding comments and posting the diffs to be incorporated upstream.
This exercise will help you gauge your understanding against that of
those who maintain the code.  Some positive side effects: code review,
more comments (at an "appropriate" level), interaction with multiple
"real world" examples and people.  Caveat: the latter might degenerate
into a negative experience, people being what they are, but then that's
life outside the books.
