I want to feel better about myself for being more up on current events than you.

Here's my score:

by Age Group:

You scored better than 83% of the general public on our News IQ quiz. The average person between 30 and 49 years old scored better than 48% of the public while the average person under the age of 30 did better than 30%.

Percentile Rank

This chart and the charts by gender, education, and age show your percentile rank. The percentile rank shows the percentage of the public who scored below you on the quiz. By definition, the average person scored at the 50th percentile (half of the public did worse, half did better). You scored better than 83% of the general public on the quiz.

I'm 27 years of age by the way.

  1. I am in the middle bracket and I scored 91% on this quiz.


  2. I got 83. Not great except by comparison.  What's remarkable is how simple the questions are and how little most of the people on here would know according to the survey.  The score isn't in points its stated as greater than a certain percentage of the general population.  I'm retired.

  3. Woohoo!  I scored better than 97% of all Americans.

    I swear I didn't cheat.  I just have a good head on my shoulders.

    Edit: That Dow Jones question was tricky.  A couple days ago, it was closer to 10,000 than 12,000.

  4. 97 missed the Dow Jones Question.

  5. I scored 91%

    only missed the dow jones question

    I'm 26 w/ a High School Education
