These folks claim they can guess your educational level based on your answers to this quiz.
I scored an 81%. Hehe, I think I have a PhD!  My score probably has more to do with the fact I am a nerd whose head is full of useless bits of information. Can We Guess Your Highest Education Level? - Offbeat |

70 questions - just a warning for those getting started. Several times I wondered if this was a trick test, where you score as "smarter" if you realize that there's no end and opt out before you reach a certain number.
Lizard Lady, I got 81% too! Crazy! Literary Lark - I missed the capital of Kenya. I was going to guess the right answer, but I thought it was a trick (hmm... I'm sensing a theme!). I guessed wrong. I figure it balances out with the questions where I guessed right! It was kind of fun though. Thanks! |

I was doing really well on that test when my tablet started reloading it over and over till it lost the site. Tried on the laptop and barely got started before it froze.

I got 67%, and it says I got a PhD. Glad to know I'm not stupid.

It said I was a college graduate with a four year degree.
I'll take that as a compliment considering I have only a high school education.

80% but it was a shared test with me and my son. It actually was quite fun doing the test together.
He knew more history and geography than I did.

I got 84%, so PH.D supposedly but I don't have one!
 I do however have a law degree. (bachelors in the UK) I agree that there are a few that are almost trick questions. If I'd gone with my first instincts I would have got them right but oh well! I had to make a few educated guesses on some though.

I personally don't think intelligence should be measured by learning and remembering random facts.

Apparently I have a PhD.
I bombed all the Shakespeare questions which isn't a surprise.

Many of my answers were just lucky guesses to get the score of 86%. No PhD in my education only a BS in accounting & computer science after an AA in music. I think the older we get we just are exposed to so many different things because I know so much more now than I did in my younger days just because I have been exposed to so many more things & am also more observant.

I want my PhD, do you think if I showed my old college my 83% score they would give me one?

Most of these are common sense. 86%. No in real life I don't have Ph. D but I have two masters totally unrelated to each other. I read a lot so most of my knowledge comes from that. Not actual education

I only missed the one about Henry VIII's wives. I thought only about a third of those questions were about stuff I'd learned in school, so an actual PhD wouldn't have helped me much with the quiz.
I was wondering too after a while, how long the darn thing was going to be. I wasn't planning to stick it out all the way through a hundred questions because I was going to feel even sillier if it didn't end at 100.
