I got 11 out of 12. I missed the question about Moses and the ark.

12 out of 12, but I’d seen most of the questions before.

_You scored 9 out of 12 - You are normal but distracted_

That’s a damn lie!  
I am **not** normal! How dare they! 😃

I missed #4 but I have no clue about baseball; #6, but I really suck at math to begin with; and #10.

I missed the one about taking a pill ever half hour.

</div>

I missed 6.

I put 1 for the Moses and the Ark question because I thought “member” reffered to “penis”, and only the male animals would have penises. I have a dirty mind 🙂

10 out of 12. I’ve never liked that pill question. And yeah, Moses probably wasn’t on the ark. Shows what a heathen I am I guess.

I got all 12 right. To be fair, though, I’ve seen all of these questions before.

</div>

I got 11 out of 12. I missed number 6 because I subracted 10 from 60 instead of adding 10. And I had seen some of the questions before.

1. I missed the pills one (didn’t give it any serious thought), the baseball one (I still don’t understand what I got wrong because baseball is Of Another World), the 28 days one, which was a fair cop, and the clerk in the butcher shop one, which was a pretty clever question.

11 out of 12.

I’ve got exams next week, so i was doing the whole read it once, read it again, are you sure you read the question right, better double check and read it again routine. That helped tremendously

</div>

11 out of 12.

I missed the one about “how many months have 28 days”.

Clever test, though.

You scored 11 out of 12 - You are above normal! (Question 10 gets them every time!!)

Stupid Ark.
