Beat the monkey...

...in geography, history, science/tech, and trivia. (Well, what did you think?) Nicked from [livejournal.com profile] astrogirl2's blog, [livejournal.com profile] maximumverbosit.

Your Final Quiz Score: 38 right out of a possible 60
The Monkey's Final Score: 18 right out of 60

You asserted your intellectual superiority brilliantly! The monkey is now left contemplating his own inferiority. Where others have failed to claim the mantel of unequivocal dominance over lesser species, you have truly succeeded! Congratulations on besting the ape and reaffirming the capabilities of the human mind. You have done humankind proud.

You scored in the 90th percentile.
(90% of quiz takers scored worse than you)

Not bad over all, but I think I ought to have done better in science. :-(

You did better than I did. My Science scores were appalling, the monkey beat me. I did manage 33 out of 60.

Good going! What percentile was that, because most people must do quite badly on this one, with random guessing giving them around 15.

I honestly can't remember my percentile. I was so appalled at my science scores that I didn't make a note of anything except my overall score. I take comfort in the fact that the science I got wrong was developed in the last 15-20 years, I got the science I learned at school correct.

I've just done the quiz again repeating my answers and discovered I'm in the top 80%.

See, I thought that was a good score. :-)
