I'm 99.9% smarter.

I didn't need to take the quiz, though. I just know.

Wait - average what?

Apparently it takes at least 10.5% more smarts than average to know how to use an apostrophe.

Wait - if 50% of the population is below average, how can all of the people who have taken the quiz be above average?

Hmmm.... 44.1% smarter.

Then again, it's based on knowledge rather than "smartness."

Some things I just don't want to know...or maybe don't want anyone else to know...they can suspect all they want.

13.5% for me.

If smart means ability to recall useless fact quickly.

Oh please, 58.9%, and had to answer a phone call and converse with the person while taking the test. Definitely knowledge-based, as versus intelligence-based.
