You're going to Hell for this.

I'm below average. I think if I was 45 years younger I would be above average.

I was about a third of the way through and my computer crashed. I was running about 75% right, I dunno how that would rank, but I am continually amazed at how little I know.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

I was running just a little ahead of Gato when my computer started spitting out wrong answers, even though I was selecting right answers. Go figure.

half way through, the computer said I was too stupid to continue and it refused to waste its time.

I went back and completed it, but I didn't keep track of my number of wrong answers. At the end, the computer didn't tell me and just more or less froze up. So I don't know what my total was. OTOH, I found out I didn't know much about the moons, etc of our solar system. Of course, I think that ranks right in there with completely useless knowledge AFA I am concerned. I guess if I need to know I'll ask my daughter who just got an "A" in Astronomy at UT Austin. That and $5 will get her a latte at Starbucks.

90%, and all but two I should have gotten.

Having a scientific education helps, but a lot of relatively recent astronomy in that quiz.

I also never bothered to remember constants...

Cramming for the test knowing what questions will be asked - sounds like public education to me!
