36. The average is now 18.3
Edited on Fri Jan-26-07 12:10 AM by Bucky
DUers are not only lowering the average by taking this test... we're also coming back here and lying about it.

5. I scored a 28.
Now,I don't know if that is a proportion of the questions asked or what - didn't have time to count the total number of questions. I'd like to know which I got wrong.

It's very culture-specific.

18. Well, if enough DUers take the test, we'll raise
the average quite a bit.

Tomorrow, when everyone has taken it, I want some answers to the ones I think I missed.

21. Trivia is not a good test of intelligence.
Edited on Thu Jan-25-07 11:08 PM by file83
Some of the questions required thought, which is good, but a lot of them were just trivia questions. It doesn't take a genius to realize that.

22. 23 but I think those of us in our 40s have an advantage because
many of the historical events were taking place just prior or during our lifetime. :shrug:

29. 24, also. But aren't we tweaking the average way up?
You gotta figure, most of DU is going to be "smarter than average" about a lot of that stuff... so we're totally skewing the data... :rofl:

Yeah, ok, I'm a geek.

34. took it again, got a 28, but of course taking it a second time is cheating
But besides having a 28 IQ, I don't mind cheating to be smarter.

43. 23, but I'm not so great on timed tests sometimes, and..
I have no interest in beer. So I likely got that one wrong.

funny I never knew I was dumber than the rest of you guys around here. :) I don't know how I'm going to deal with this revelation. :banghead: Flagellation doesn't work for me.

I wonder if reaction time is factored into the score. Mine would be slow. I answered most of them at the buzzer.
