I did. The first time was a long time ago. And I just passed again.

But, along with Steve at Modulator and Phil at Bad Astronomy, I wonder whether the authors could pass their own quiz.

Science wasn't my favorite but my worst was math. I passed this one too...surprisingly!

Obviously Science was not my subject. I failed. But I have managed to live 55 years withour needing to know the answers to these questions.

8/8 here, but I agree with your assessment of the quizmaker's knowledge.
If you're going to post a science quiz in the 'net, wouldn't you want to spell the word 'nucleus' correctly?

I got all of them correct as well, but I cheated because I sat next to Allan and copied his answers.

I'll have to try it and see, although I have my doubts. I loved college science though, which is surprising because it isn't my area of expertise.

I passed too, but there's no fun if there's no chance of blowing up a lab, or a whole floor of the chemistry building. Try paying for a wing of the chemistry building with your chemistry breakage cards.

I took the test, but I must have done badly, because the site never gave me the results. Maybe it was just a computer glitch.
But I thought I passed it.

I am a genius.

i passed in 8th grade, but not now. very disconcerting.
what i did pass (also in 8th grade as well as now) is 8th grade math in the blogthings...which was surprising as it was my worst subject ever.
i often wonder about the ability of the quiz makers to speak english. sometimes they don't type it very well.

I took one look at that test and failed just by that attempt. Science was never my strong suit. The frog and worm dissection in biology nearly did me in too. lol

What is 8th grade science? The test is assinine. A kid aged 3 could pass it.

A kid aged three could probably spell asinine, too.
