I got about 8 of them, but for some reason they were not acknowledged. Furthermore, they don't give you the answers when you give up! But it is a good mental exercise. Have at it!

Interesting it is listed as an intelligence test - when I first discovered it (at least 12 years ago) I gave it to some pupils at school who were of the very lowest ability in English Language and they got several straight away. Its how your mind works - some can do this sort of puzzle and some can't. |

19 Mar 06 - 12:01 PM (#1697805) Subject: RE: BS: Numbers Test--Ho w did YOU do? From: GUEST,saulgoldie I have requested the answers from the person who sent it to me. (She figured out all but #31.) I think it's unfair that the site doesn't give you the option of getting them. When I get them, I will PM them to whoever wants them. |

19 Mar 06 - 12:21 PM (#1697822) Subject: RE: BS: Numbers Test--Ho w did YOU do? From: Uncle_DaveO I can't figure out how to make it calculate my score. I figured out eleven, and entered them. I don't see a "Calculate" button or anything similar. At the bottom of the page it shows 0/33. It can't be scoring as one enters answers, or I would surely get SOME of those eleven counted, even if I was wrong on a few (doubtful) or entered them in some wrong form. Can someone advise me what's going on? Dave Oesterreich |

19 Mar 06 - 01:10 PM (#1697857) Subject: RE: BS: Numbers Test--Ho w did YOU do? From: Jeri Oh well - do I have to subtract points for not understanding Dave's message? Sorry, Dave. There's a red border around the boxes when you type into them. If you get it right, they get greyed out. If it doesn't change and you're sure you had the right answer, check for misspellings, extra spaces or punctuation whoopsies. |

19 Mar 06 - 01:20 PM (#1697867) Subject: RE: BS: Numbers Test--Ho w did YOU do? From: Bunnahabhain I currently have 22 of them done, but have stalled rather. Are lots of them US references? Trying to correct the invisible formatting errors is annoying, especially an extra space after the last word.... |

19 Mar 06 - 01:25 PM (#1697874) Subject: RE: BS: Numbers Test--Ho w did YOU do? From: ranger1 Well, I got 24 before I gave up. The other 9 are bugging me, though. |

19 Mar 06 - 01:31 PM (#1697883) Subject: RE: BS: Numbers Test--Ho w did YOU do? From: John MacKenzie Right thanks, I've sorted it out now, I have a definite 24, and a couple which I thought were right but they don't. Remember to put the numbers in your answer too. Giok |

19 Mar 06 - 01:35 PM (#1697889) Subject: RE: BS: Numbers Test--Ho w did YOU do? From: jacqui.c You need to make sure that the whole answer, including the nimber, is put in the box and that spelling and punctuation is correct. When you do that the answer turns green. I couldn't get 7,8,11,12,14,15,17,28,29,30. Saul - If you get the answers I would like them please. I've pm'd the answer to 31. |

19 Mar 06 - 08:24 PM (#1698204) Subject: RE: BS: Numbers Test--Ho w did YOU do? From: Nigel Parsons 26 on the first attempt, but I only left 3 spaces, so I think it is down to careful wording on some. My three gaps were 5,10 & 30. Others marked as wrong were 6,7 24 & 28. For those still getting 0/33, you need to include the number in the answer as well CHEERS Nigel |
