back in 1973 when I was applying for a job. The test is not designed to measure your IQ. The underlying test within the test is to determine whether you know the best way to maximize your score. When you are set up for the test you are advised that the number of correct answers is your score. There is no penalty for an incorrect answer. By design, there is not enough time to think through all the questions and still finish.

The way to maximize your score is to blow through the test as fast as you can, finding all the questions you cna anser in the blink of an eye. Then, after you do that go back and take another run through trying to answer the ones you skipped the first time, taking care not to spend too much time on any one question. If it takes too much time, forget it and move on. Leave yourself enough time to make one more pass, and guess at all the ones you don’t have time to figure out. Remember, you don’t get penalized for wrong answers. You might easily pick a few more right answers that way.

The test on the link is bogus because the whole point of the test is to see how you manage an unmanageable situation. Twenty questions in twelve minutes doesn’t do that. Given an adequate amount of time most of us on this board could probably score 40 or better, although I suspect the Cowboy’s bloggers would probably be closer to Vince’s score….LOL

Had I scored less than Vince Young, I would have admitted it, then never come in here again. As a matter of fact, I probably would have thrown out my computer

though I think I could have done better – I spent more time on a few of the questions b/c I thought they seemed too easy, and read them way more carefully than they had to be read. Oh well…

as fast as possible, I got a 25. Based on answering them all, I got a 40, but not in the right about of time (more like 10 minutes). And I’m giving myself extra credit for the last answer because I don’t care what the answer key says, flammable and inflammable do not mean the exact same thing. I’m proud of myself for figuring out 11 in my head correctly but then I used up half my time to do that.

the one with the identical names is cheap – I’m on a small laptop, and couldn’t tell that one was a comma and one was a period. I think I should give myself credit for that one…

I did the test and got 37.5.

just because you’re not smart enough to beat us, doesn’t mean we had to cheat. LOL

 I had an unfair advantage. I just started graduate school this January and back in December I had to take the GMAT examine to get in. This wonderlick is like an easier version of that so I’ve been studying for about 2 months on how to take these types of tests in a certain amount of time. If you practice learning numbers and ways of looking at questions to indentify wrong ansewers you could significantly increase your scores on these sorts of tests. I wonder if any of the potenial draft picks take practice tests in order to try and get a better score.

That’s probably why I get all these hot chicks like a football star… too bad I can’t make millions has a PC Tech! At least I’m smarter than Vince Young.. going to commit suicide, difference is I’m smart enough to pull it off. LOL

It’s quite different with the timer running
