90 out of 100 correct. Not too bad for a 70yr old 🧓.Love doing these to keep my mind sharp.

I'd love to see a college kid take this quiz......it would make a GREAT KZbin vid :)

[@ankhpom9296]

To be able to answer the questions correctly requires a very good memory and to have been widely ready and experienced. A high IQ need not necessarily be a requirement.

[@thomasr.alstad1288]

High IQ is not requiered... But a good, selektive memory is useful... 🤔🤨🧐👍

John changed his second name once he was married to that doppelganger.

Yeah, Ono was his wife... not his name.

[@donaldspicer9484]

Now Robert, be nice ... you might not've taken a fancy to Ono, but remember John loved her. 'tsgotta count for something don'tcha think?

[@MrTomherzog]

Absolutely. If he took his wife's name as an adult does that really qualify as part of his middle name? Generally in Western culture formal names are bestowed at birth by parents. "Nick names" are acquired later in life but they are not considered formal.

[@donaldspicer9484]

REALLY!!! It seems to change exponentially, as well. If I had to write in the names of the countries on a globe of the world outlining ALL the present day countries, I would FAIL miserably. I know there's 7 continents but the countries and all the cities there in, are so vastly different from what we learned in the 60s... I'm grateful for the library of knowledge my brain contains; sadly though (sort of), I'm highly selective of what I add to it. Too much unnecessary clutter! Superfluous jibber don't you think

[@donaldspicer9484]

Sort of similar to all the vehicles on today's highways: If I can't see the name on it as it passes, I've pretty much no idea what it is!

[@QuizTimePubQuiz]

Well done 👍🏻

[@jimmeade2976]

Good quiz ... I scored 92/100 ... 4 wrong in each half. a few clarifications: question 59 - The Arabian Desert is actually larger than the Gobi Desert but is considered part of the Sahara, hence the Gobi is considered the largest desert in Asia. question 81 - Big Ben refers to the bell inside the tower, which is called The Elizabeth Tower

[@johntatum1951]

The Question was for the largest in Asia...so Gobi is correct.

[@jimmeade2976]

@@johntatum1951 I agree that Gobi is the correct answer. I am just pointing out that some people say the Arabian Desert is the correct answer. Geography experts consider the Arabian Desert, which is in Asia, (mostly in Saudi Arabia) and larger than the Gobi, to be a part of the Sahara Desert, not a desert in its own right, and therefore Gobi is considered the largest. FYI, Gobi in Mongolian means desert, so to say Gobi Desert is redundant.

[@LetsPatchItUp]

​@@johntatum1951where exactly do you Believe Arabs are from? From what continent are the Arabic peoples?

[@MrTomherzog]

Not really a great quiz; there were several ambiguous answers. Sometimes the test taker is smarter than the test maker which kind of makes the whole exercise pointless.

[@Garwfechan-ry5lk]

The Arabian Desert is in Arabia and is not in Africa where the Sahara is

💢💢On #64, the screen showed the correct "x=8" but the test master said "x=9!"💢💢

[@robertbradfield6243]

The test master made a mistake. Could you not tell? Poor Fritz.

[@donaldspicer9484]

Ja Fritz, sehr gut! Ich hatte das auch gesehen. He also pronounced Iago's name wrong (said Lago!) And a couple of Norwegian words incorrectly (I had trouble with them, also) However, x=9 was his biggest mistake and catching that shows you know the right answer. Bottom line-- 95 out of 100 questions & answers read correctly in succession earns an A- in my opinion UND, Fritz, du hast auch sehr gut gemacht!

92-100 correct, to be fair a lot were from deduction, would be better or harder if they mixed as some had obvious 2 wrong answers. Big ben is the bell not the clock tower, another brick in the wall PTII, but this couldn`t possibly constitute towards IQ lol, enjoyable though.

Quiz Time, just a free Spanish lesson here re. Q about Mexico's currency: choice #1 is KATE-sahl, named after a beautiful wild parrot down there. In 14, blood doesn't clot normally. Re. 17, 'nh' in Portuguese (choice 1) is equal to the "en-yay' in pina colada, and 'gn' in Italian and French. In reference to #38, if I remember correctly from one of my favorite old movies, Leonidas was the Greek general in the Battle of Thermopilae. In #64, you said #9, but gave the correct answer of 8. In #97, the front part of a boat/ship rhymes with 'now', and in 98, #3 is BRIZ-b'n, rather than 'bane'. I guess it depends on what you classify as "great", as I got only 78 right.
