You answered 25 of 50 questions correctly for a total score of 50%.
A second guessed 2 that turned out to be right. I actually scored better than I thought I would.

Good enough at science to figure how much time it would take to answer 50 questions.

I was up to 40 out of 44 when I got a runtime error and the damn site shut down on me. Yeah, honest. Hey, I do work for scientific publishing company.
Some of the math/physics questions were my weak point. I'll try it again tomorrow, see if I can get the last 6 questions to load.

It's a stupid test and I don't see what the big deal is.

One thing that surprised me was how much I remembered from Chemistry, a subject I really disliked, and how little of Physics, something I just stopped short of loving.

I tapped out of the test about ten questions in. I missed two answers at that point -- the "Thunder Lizard" one and the "nanometer" one.
If all the questions were on one or two pages, it would be fine but I hate it when websites design multiple click-throughs. It becomes pretty tedious.
