You must have lost more brain cells than me. I would have scored higher if I had just went with my first instincts on a couple of questions. I suppose subconciously, my first instincts were that I remembered. I just didn't listen to them. :(

It's been almost 23 years since I've been in school, so that's my excuse. :lol: There were only 6 questions I knew the answers to...the others I just guessed. :lol: Pretty sad when you don't remember what a prime number is. :oops: :lol:

It's been 31 years since I've been in school so I got you beat. Yes, I too forgot what a prime number was. :cry: I could have googled it and it would have come back to me, but I didn't cheat.

D'oh... it would help if I kept my civilizations in the right lands. I always mix up the Mayans with the Incas! Anyway, I didn't notice a % point, but that was the only one I got wrong.

Nah...I'm just a sucker for useless, trivial information. You know...one of those people who can answer most Jeopardy questions...or would that be answers?
