Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?
Just wondering because around here, with all the weirdness - I was just wondering...


You can take this test - all questions appeared on the TV Show Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?

2. Only 90% smarter.
Damn.

You are 90% Smarter than a fifth grader.


You are smarter than a fifth grader. no doubt. There is no need for you to retake school. Keep on doing your brain excersise like sudokus and crossword puzzles, and you'll soon be smarter than a sixth grader! Good work!

6. If they ate penguins, they might live longer.
Penguins are plentiful, fast, agile and smart enough to be in a different hemesphere than polar-bears.

9. 100%, but one of their questions was wrong.
The Puritans (NOT Pilgrims) did not take ANY ship to the U.S., as the U.S. did not exist in 1620.

Neener neener.

14. Yay, me--

You are smarter than a fifth grader. no doubt. There is no need for you to retake school. Keep on doing your brain excersise like sudokus and crossword puzzles, and you'll soon be smarter than a sixth grader! Good work!


I are 90% smarter than a fifth grader.

I are also unable to do sophisticated links on DU.

Could somebody explain to me in sixth grade language how I make that code be a link?

17. 80 percent...but it's okay, because I'm not american. I did not know the first pres impeached
(I thought it was nixon) and I did not know the term for a U.S. Rep (I actually read it as President, and I put 4 years).

Which I'm thankful for, since I used to teach 9th graders.

That would have been worrying.

26. I was seriously scared that it would tell me "You are not smarter than a fifth grader."
I've forgotten so much over the years, I figured I'd flunk that little quiz.
