or a reasonable fascimile thereof... no calculators allowed - just pen/paper. http://www.nicholascreative.com/footballiq/ During the NFL Pre-Draft Combine each year players are evaluated not only on their strength and speed, but also their mental acuity by taking the Wonderlic test – an intelligence test designed to measure a person's ability to process information. The test scores range from 0 to 50 and the 2011 Draft Class had some high scores – Blaine Gabbert with a 42 and Greg McElroy with a 43, some middling – Cam Newton's 21, and some low ones like A.J. Green's 10. Want to see how you stack up? Take our own intelligence quiz – 15 questions in 3 minutes and 36 seconds to find out. TexasFight Scored 46 That's better than Greg McElroy. He only scored a 43.
the Wonderlic is 50 questions in 12 minutes. Not 15 questions in 3 minutes 36 seconds. Not sure what this test is, but it ain't a Wonderlic.

Only got a 26 myself. Is there an advantage to skipping over the ones that require a lot of mental arithmetic? On a few of them, I probably spent close to 30 seconds, and I only completed 9 of them.
On a Wonderlic, the questions are suppose to get harder (more time consuming) as you go. You can skip one (with no penalty), but there may not be much advantage to it.
I was stumped on the question asking about the number of combinations someone could wear without wearing the same thing twice. I believe it was 3 pairs of shoes, 4 shorts and 9 shirts. I also guessed on the question asking which one is not the same as 12(7-1).
I think the idea is to use Number Sense and figure out quick tricks on how to complete the problems, which on the surface might appear to be time consuming, in a shorter amount of time. It seems like there is an advantage in skipping problems though, because that will allow you to move on and get a higher quantity of questions correct, which would then raise your raw score.

At first I just started thinking about the question and didn't think the time was for the entire quiz... I thought it was just for ONE question... oops... so I got a 23 (better than Cam Newton)... :grin: but I pressed "back" and couldn't grab the screen WHOA THERE, MOTHER ******!!!
Oh, I just saw that I could have used pen and paper. Dang, that would have helped. Oh well, I guess I deserve the penalty for misreading the first post.
I spent a long time on 1, so skipped a second one that was going to take a while (something about engine oil... it was a yes or no answer so i just figured it made more sense to guess and move on). I got a 40. The time is the big issue, and if you don't know that going in, it could mess you up.
