Kinda interesting to see where you rank. My results:
You scored better than 85% of the public, below 9% and the same as 6%.

Same score you got, 10/13. The ones I missed were wild guesses anyway.

10/13 as well
12/13 missed same swx marriage.
11/13 OK, seriously? Who knows what ANY countries populous curves look like. My first thought was.... That one is theoretical.

You scored better than 91% of the public, below 4% and the same as 5%.
11/13... That DOW question is kinda silly. I totally guessed on the male-female chart, and guessed right somehow.

11/13, missed the Dow and and the "Women in Congress" one (I pegged it at 30%, answer was 20).

It's more of an educated guess. A population pyramid from a stable country that has a high life expectancy will be predictably different from one that is known for being unstable and with a markedly lower life expectancy. One of the answers was not like the rest.
11/13. I'm apparently bad with faces because I missed Snowden and the Yahoo CEO.
It kills me to think that only 21% of the participants missed the stock market question. How do you forget about 2009?
I didn't take the test, but I did get a ribbon for participation...[LOL]

13/13 here. Made educated guesses on a couple.

You answered 8 of 13
questions correctly.
I am the suck
8/13. Better than 65%, Not as good as 25%, same as 10% .
Mostly missed the ones that showed a picture and asked who that person was. I get most of my news off the radio or in print. I did miss the one about same sex marriage.
8 of 13. I must be younger than some of you. I guess I need to pay better attention. I'd like to see some coworkers take this test.
