Be forewarned the test takes some time. I almost gave up. I scored an 87%. The ones I missed were pop figures I never heard of. I didn't know who the heck they were even after the test told me the right answer. I was pleased I got the political and scientific ladies. I'll also warn you that the test is slanted to folks in the US. Have fun!

Wow! I doubt I would have done as well as you did if the questions were about ladies from the UK.
Thanks for this!

I got an 80%, not too bad considering when I guessed I had it down each time to one of two answers and I picked the WRONG one each time, what are the odds of that??

72%. I'm originally from England then NZ so many historical women in the quiz that I never learned about. A fascinating quiz though. I'm off to google a few of them now. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for this!

I didnt get to finish because my browser got stuck on some buggy ad i was doing pretty good i think too. Honestly though only a few did i immediately know by looks mostly relied on the questions. Like i know Ayn Rand wrote Atlas Shrugged....in fact i think thats all i know about her! But can anyone here honestly say they would be able to pick out Ayn Rand if it just said " who is this woman?" Lol
side note..... wtf with seeking out the worst pic of Sofia Loren ever taken?!!

83% I think that's respectable.
