    Anyone do the 'test the nation' quiz on RTE last night?
    If so, what score did you get and what was your IQ?

    I didn't do it myself but they did it at home with scores of 107, 120 & 122 (mam, sis & dad) I reckon I would have beat them all though :D

    Teey were easy enough when they were going through the answers alright but when you were doing them under time pressure, not so easy.

    The presentation of the show was pure Sh1te that much is true. Some tool asking gombeen and seriously patronising questions of the the totally superflous 'audience' and a panel of 'celebrities??' giving inane comments. THe show took most of the night, but could have easily been done in an hour of less, and been far more entertaining.

    Have to say I had no interest in doing an IQ test and switched off alomost straight away; the general knowledge format of last years' show was far better imho.

    I did it on the RTE website just now - it was on in the background last night but hadn't paid any attention to it so thought I'd give it a shot today when I was more awake. Got 126 so was happy enough with that. A lot of the questions were pretty straightforward (like the memory ones, for example) but the time constraints made it more difficult to get the answer correct.

    Meant to do it but forgot. Did the British one a few years ago, got 123, but it isn't designed for people under 18 so it's actually higher...............
