RE: Pew science quiz
I scored perfect on the pretty damn easy Pew Politics quiz ... it put me in the top 2 or 6 percentile. Ridiculous how sad my fellow countrymen are.

Taking this now .... seems pretty damn easy too.

12/12, also.

I disagree with a couple of the questions, but I followed common sense and what the public education system taught me was right. 03-razz

If my 12 for 12 puts me in the top 10% then we are in serious trouble. I don't consider myself to be particularly adept in the world of science.

12/12. Hard to believe anyone with an 8th grade education would not do the same.

Yep. It was more of a "science news" quiz. Embarrassingly simple.

RE: Pew science quiz
I assumed some of you were fudging your scores, but after taking the test, I would find it harder to believe if you hadn't all also got 12's.

Something must have gone wrong on the original survey for only 10% of people to score a 12. That's just unacceptable.

Not sure most astronomers think Pluto shouldn't be a planet, but I know what they were going for there.
