12 out of 13. I selected 30% of Congress are women when 20% was the correct answer.

Is Pew trying to warn us with the topics of the 13 questions?

You scored better than 85% of the public, below 9% and the same as 6%.

I got 13/13.

Sure be interesting if they had asked political affiliation for their population comparison.

But maybe Pew knew what they’d find if they asked and wouldn’t like the answer.

13 of 13. Knew them all, instantly, except for # of women in Congress and the Supreme Court judge. I best guessed at those.

had no idea what the population distribution was for (who would)

Anyone who wasn't too politically correct to answer based on stereotypes.
