I just took a sample wonderlic and got 14/15 just because I didn't have a calculator

You should post a link to the sample test and we can all take, and post our results. Could be a fun time killing thread.

Try to do this in less than 3 minutes, and don't cheat! 14/15 is the score to beat

Or laziest/most resourceful. 4,800 x .45 = calculator time. Which one did you get wrong?

I think a lot of the players attitude is *** the wonderlic, which would be mine. You bust your butt in high school and college for what? All the wonderlic does is give losers another minor thing to point their finger at and make worthless comments on. Every year sheesh.

Yeah but if you're going to take the test, why half ass it and put a potential negative shadow over all of your prior hard work? It's not the SAT's or something that requires vast amounts of prep time.

I think the best strategy would be to go through and answer all the gimmes like "what is the 9th month of the year?" or "what is half of .25?"

Yup. Depends on the time limit and test format though. Still, better to guess with 25% chance of being right and get through 5 more simple questions. Even just blindly guessing on some questions, it would be hard to only get 4/50.

The kid has a learning disability. This is some *cked up stuff right here by CBS/ESPN[/url]

I totally disagree - these organizations are doing a noble public service in keeping us informed of the results of this intelligence test conducted by the NFL. It shows excellent judgement on their part not to confuse the issue by adding in any additional qualifying information beyond the raw scores - that's all we need to be able to evaluate the situation.

Clearly this kid is a moron, LSU is cheating to keep him on the field. The NCAA should investigate...if anything short of LSU on probation is a result, justice has not been served.
