Wanna Take The Wonderlick Test? (1 Viewer)

I scored 40.

That printing one screwed me up cause id have printed it all on 20 pages and saved the money for the cost of the 21st page. and my boss would have thanked me!

 
I feel ######ed that I messed up the "Identical names" one

The print page layout was a good one, but if you've done a few math courses in college you'll get it in about 5 mins.

I took one years ago as part of a job interview process. I believe they gave me 12 minutes for 45 questions. The HR person told me she had been administering it for over 10 years and no one had ever finished. IIRC I had 3 quesitons left.

Many of the questions are easy, especially if you have good math skills.

lol....in that case you score one out of 20.even vince young can beat that.

:no: 15-30 seconds max. And I'm by no means a math fan!

Any time you're getting one of these going for a job, you have to move on to the next question straight away if you think it's going to be taking you over 20 seconds to get.

 
So does the OP fail the test automatically by misspelling the name of it? :goodposting:

And keep in mind when you take this that I believe the time limit while taking it is supposed to be set very low.

 
I've seen every one of those questions so many times that the test is only a measure of memory, though in fairness, at one time, before I knew the answers, I arrived at them.

 
Got the last one incorrect. :shrug:

20. 1 - Have similar meanings. Flammable and inflammable mean the exact same thing.

I've incorrectly believed "inflammable" meant the opposite of flammable my entire life. :kicksrock: Can't say I expected to learn anything from that test.

Same here. 47.5.
 
Ugh... 22.5. I must be the dumbest FBG around :bag:

I did get caught up on the printer question, and forgot about the time a little. If I would have just kept moving, as someone suggested, I could have challenged the rest of you geniuses.

 
45,

had no idea how to approach the missing letter problem and foolishly missed the which are identical problem, presbyopia stinks didn't notice the , vs .

 
37.5....tried to finish as fast as possible (4 minutes 38 seconds) and made real stupid addtiton errors. I would say the letter squence question really stumped me. :pics:

 
The average score (out of 50) is a 21.

That's 42%. That's the average for NFL players? :rolleyes:

I missed the missing letter one as well. Well, I gave up trying to figure it out, so it would have been a miss on the test unless there was a reasonable time limit. The world of possibilities for that arrangement of letters is countless just in terms of discovering if the pattern runs vertical through the columns (where the letters are spaced more closely together), horizontal across the rows, or even diagonally like a word find. Not to mention the whole translational code problem of discovering that the letters are actually numbers to begin with. Maybe I'm wrong, but unless you've seen that type of problem before and been taught how to solve it, you aren't likely to stumble across the right answer by applying commonly acquired knowledge, mathematical or otherwise.Not to mention how that question would help a scout decide a player was NFL material.

I got two wrong #2 and #18

:kicksrock: Did anyone get #18. I couldnt grasp it at all. I thought #2 was a trick Q so I guessed uncertain, it seemed too obvious.

University educated students should be able to breeze through this thing and easily score a 30.
