I was going to get the first one wrong so I quit.

I was waiting to see if you'd post your results, had a feeling you'd do quite well in that area!!!

9/12. Some were educated guesses, most were guesses.

 

[Rocky]

I got an 83% and I used an "educated guess" on every question, i.e. I was not even reasonably sure of any answer.

 

[mainshipfred]

You are all way better guessers then me.

I suppose that I have taken so many tests over my 78 years that I can usually make a "good guess." For example, the question that had "all of the above" as a response. In most cases that I have experienced, that is the answer because tricky test constructors think the "test-ee" will see the first answer is correct and not read to the end of the answers. And the question on when wine was first produced in Idaho. It seemed to me it had to be not just recently, so I guessed the 1800's answer. And then there was the question about a partner of a certain person in a wine making endeavor. There was a name that seemed to be of the same or similar ethnicity so I guessed that one.
