Stavros Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 This is a test administered to kids in the UK for decades in order to determine what level of school they'd be sent to back in the day when we had a lot of Grammer schools. The BBC just put a sample test up and I got 11/15. Now perhaps if I'd prepared my mind rather than doing it on the fly I'd have got a couple more but given the 10 minute time limit I really think I'd miss a couple of them after looking at the correct solution. My mind appears to have degraded somewhat since school (no surprise there). Do you dare take the 11 Plus exam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothian Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Top of the class! You've scored 14 out of 15. I managed to pass the actual exam back when I was 10, which led to the meeting with Adham, and the rest is history. ........damn exam. The one anomaly was the last question, which I ran out of time for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 13/15. And I took 4 minutes trying to understand what the first question was asking me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 What was the answer to 15? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 What was the answer to 15? 22. The first, third, fifth, and seventh numbers all increased by 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 13/15. And I took 4 minutes trying to understand what the first question was asking me! I kept reading and re-reading the questions to absorb them, it just wasn't happening. I'm not used to needing to comprehend what I'm reading, if that makes sense. Look if you're all going to prove to be smarter than me then we need a different measuring stick. One I can hit you with preferably. I've got an IQ between 129-133 if that helps (although that is the lowest in my immediate family. I still say my mum cheated to get 146, she's a Daily Mail reader for gods sake!).

Guest Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 You really don't want to play that game either. Mine is supposedly 156. I think IQs are bullshit though, for the record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
