And then there were three…congrats!
What Hal said.
I got the same score as Qadgop. I’m…shocked.
A couple were complete guesses, but there was more ‘well, I know it’s not that or that’ than ‘I’ll just close my eyes and hope’, so I guess I can be proud of it.
Ahh, eunoia, you hunk of hockey hotness, you! I’m curious - did you make this test up? The site looks like it’s for applying your own quizzes.
Thanks, eunoia, for making us all feel inferior to our respective doctors. Do you know what a spline is??? You’ve advanced patient care -50 years! :rolleyes:
Oh duh. I read your second post. You did make it up. Nice - a couple of those questions were pretty obscure.
I only got a 27. Fooey.
No idea what a spline is. Let’s not get overly dramatic, it’s just a silly LJ-type quiz that I re-posted here to prove it wasn’t “impossible”. The original material wasn’t targeted towards the general public and (trust me) took plenty of potshots at the medical profession.
There were about 200 total, but they were written way back when “content” was an internet buzzword. The contractors wanted a tongue-in-cheek tough trivia game for M.D.s. They finally never tested it with doctors because they deemed it “too difficult” ironically “too trivial” and a lot of the humour “inappropriate”, ex:
Lyme Disease is named for:
a) Old Lyme, Connecticut
b) Dr. Harry Lyme
c) Lymnaea snail
Answer: a) We’re on the map! Take that Gonorrhea Hills, New Hampshire!
I crack myself up, that’s what counts. 
Same as in town.
My score was 63. Everything I entered was a blind guess.
First of all, This is a spam harvesting site. I strongly suggest you do not give them your email address.
Secondly, I am a doctor and I didn’t see a single question relating to Turing Machines, Compilers, Object Oriented Programming, etc.
What’s up with that?

I always preferred oralgesics to analgesics.
