12/12, but frankly that wasn't much of an accomplishment. That would be about an 8th grade quiz from my educational era. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

11/12 but, in my defense, my answer (which was correct btw) did not register. Must not have tapped the ipad hard enough! Best regards, Tom I have no comment at this time. | |||

Sort of, I suppose, because it requires knowing what the answer isn’t. And I might be convinced that a question about the history of science isn’t science per se. A friend took it and was surprised that the general public did better than he would have expected. I haven’t made up my mind, but several of the questions do require some true understanding and knowledge of the topics. If you didn’t notice, at the end of the linked quiz is a link to a different one. Getting all 13 of those questions correct puts one at the 93 percentile. ► 6.4/93.6 ___________ “We are Americans ….
