BBC Test the Nation

[lovingboth]

I saw about two minutes of this year's 'IQ test' when it was on. It is online:

Tough :)

Well, here's the section scores:

Language 12/12
Memory 12/12
Logic 21/22
Numbers 11/12
Perception 10/12

Most interesting bit of the national results was the average scores by salary:

non-earner - 107

below £20,000 - 104

£20,000 - £30,000 - 101

£30,001 - £50,000 - 99

£50,000 + - 93


Oh, I got 186 in the relationship one that's also on the site (http://www.bbc.co.uk/testthenation/ttnarchive/relationships/) and I'd expect most readers of this to get that sort of score...

I felt that this year's 'test' was much worse in that respect than last year's; if your first/natal language wasn't english and you weren't used to english idioms and cantractions then you seemed to be clearly penalised.
