      I figure roughly 40-50% of the facts in that quiz are going to be important to me if I become an astronomer.

        Astronomy is a fun topic that is advancing rapidly. Best of luck, Lori

          You'd make more money in Astrology.

            Astrology would also be easier.

              Far fewer facts required.

                Those questions was actually the easy ones - don't know why I have picked up that (for me unessecary knowledge).

                I only got 37 right and was mainly killed by the bio questions wich I really haven't had any interest in.
                With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

                  41, and I'm an engineer

                  I suspect it was mainly the astronomy ones that I got wrong. Is there a way to review which questions one got incorrect in the second link version of the quiz? I can't see one.

                    Curiosity got the better of me and I resat the long form of quiz to find out which I got wrong. 4/9 of them were astronomical. One that I really should have gotten right but didn't was the value of e Oh and nimbus - thought they were high altitude

                              He thinks you quit because you got to a question you didn't know the answer to. In BK's mind, anyone who didn't complete the test did so because they realized they were going to get a lower score than him.

                                Given his propensity for bull****, I would assume his claimed score is bull**** too.
