Interesting. I did lousy,,,only 33 out of 50. One question is totally unfair. Unless you have read the novel Finnegan's Wake, you will have no idea what the correct answer is.

I got 41 out of 50 (or 82%).

Most of the ones I missed were questions about formulas which I’ve always been bad at memorizing.

Got 44 out of 50. Cheated a bit - opened a tab to the Periodic table, dictionary, and search engine.

I have science degrees. I gave up after getting two of the first four wrong. Really, does it matter if one knows that Mendel made his observations on pea pods and not fruit flies; or that that Federales issued a stamp in 1989 with a brontosaurus on it and not some other dinosaur?

Yeah...that one is aimed directly at the geeks in the room.

BTW...I got 44 out of 50.

42 out of 50. I’m no science type and haven’t been to school in nearly 40 years. I’m kind of proud of myself.
