    Time to play "Are you smarter then a football player"

    You have 4 minutes to take the exam... You can grade yourself, but the time limit is mandatory.

    You will know if you cheated and you will have to live with yourself if you do

    I got a 11 out of 15 in 4 minutes. Not my best wonderlic score and it probably cost me a couple of slots in the draft.

    What are you doing for the next four minutes? You're taking the official Wonderlic exam.

    8 4 2 1 ½ ¼ ?

    8. When rope is selling at $.10 a foot, how many feet can you buy for sixty cents?


    9. The ninth month of the year is

    1. October, 2. January, 3. June, 4. September, 5 May.



    10. Which number in the following group of numbers represents the smallest amount?

    7 .8 31 .33 2



    11. In printing an article of 48,000 words, a printer decides to use two sizes of type. Using the larger type, a printed page contains 1,800 words. Using smaller type, a page contains 2,400 words. The article is allotted 21 full pages in a magazine. How many pages must be in smaller type?


    12. The hours of daylight and darkness in SEPTEMBER are nearest equal to the hours of daylight and darkness in:

    1. June, 2. March, 3. May, 4. November.



    13. Three individuals form a partnership and agree to divide the profits equally. X invests $9,000, Y invests $7,000, Z invests $4,000. If the profits are $4,800, how much less does X receive than if the profits were divided in proportion to the amount invested?

            b: hurt my draft position?
            c: have no impact on it?

              14. But I played soccer in high school, and mostly drank beer at Syracuse.
              Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                  6 is too subjective. 5 doesn't have any parallel segments.

                            are there really adults that know how to breath and can't answer these questions?

                              I honestly got all of them right but the last one, and I got the last wrong becuase I overthunk.

                              not to say I'm not stupid. .I quite am, in fact. But I've always been good at this kind of testing.
