Intelligence Test

How many can you score. Be honest !

INTELLIGENCE TEST

I managed 17 but thought another was right but wasnt confirmed (1000 Y in a M)

So I'm intelligent but not a genius. Well that can't be right :-3

im calling bs on this

i got 23....should have been 26....like you it wouldnt accept 1000y no matter how i spelt it.....2 others i knew where right but even tho i tried different ways of spelling and even making sure capital letters were there, it still wouldnt accept it as right

by the way.....im not that clever..............i did this a few months back and just couldnt remember a few of them :wah::wah::wah::wah:

I got 26. I haven't given up on the ones I got wrong. I'll go back later and try to figure them out.

On that 1000 Y in a M thing, I spelled one of the words wrong & it kept coming up red so I looked up the spelling because I felt that it just had to be right!

Great quiz. I had seen a few a long time ago.

Send me a PM with the ones you knew were right or just the number of them & I'll compare the spelling with ones I had trouble with.

I managed to get a score of 12.

I'll go with the BS comment.

This "test" is more about experience and knowledge than intelligence.

I agree with LarsMac, I cannot see where intelligence comes into that particular quiz. I got 22, but there's no way I'm a genius !! :yh_rotfl

I too fell foul of the 1000 Y in a M - I think they've got it wrong !!! :rolleyes: and there were a couple of other iffy ones too. :-5

I kept getting it wrong because I kept spelling the "M" word wrong, so I looked it up in the dictionary, spelled it correctly & got the green script. I think it's a good quiz for lovers of words, arrangement, logic, Scrabble, etc. A couple of the questions were about foreign sports, which I know nothing about.

Well thank you Zap ! I would never have thought it was spelt like that ! I tried it and bingo! So I've got 23 now :sneaky: :wah:

I gave this test to a few of my friends, one of them is a teacher, and he has all but 1 correct. He keeps sending me e-mails, "Got another one!"

It does accept it - once you have the spelling right and remove any extraneous spaces at the end of the sentence

So far 27 but the others are annoying me

I came across this again a week or two ago and got 25 if I remember rightly. I wasnt able to put in "millennium" either, even with a dozen permutations

No.28 Is it 23 P**** of Christ in the Holy Bible. Whatever that might be, or am I barking up the wrong tree

I was going for 23 (rd) Psalm of C (not Christ) in the hebrew bible. What is the right answer?

23 Pairs of Chromosomes in the Human Body.

9 Provinces in South Africa

AnneBoleyn · Post by **AnneBoleyn** » Sun Jan 25, 2015 4:09 pm

23 pairs of chromosomes in each cell of human body, though I don't see how that fits either. I GIVE UP!

I thought only Canada had provinces. And the UK has one. You'd think South Africa would have what the Netherlands has.

Ah. "The Netherlands is divided into twelve provinces".

16 so far but giving up cos you lot are posting answers :wah:

Post by **spot** » Sun Jan 25, 2015 4:11 pm

Ooh. And spelling it "chromosomes" worked. Only one left.

I must admit I thought it was Presidencies until I checked.

That, on reflection, was silly.

Number 7 remains unanswered.

I got 1 in 33 which either makes me average or very lazy.
