I took the Wonderlic Test

UMGoBlog Post: I took the Wonderlic Test - By: Lance Callihan

"Now, I can say after taking the test that about 45 of the questions weren’t that hard, but made you think a few seconds or were worded in a way that forced you to step back and figure out what exactly the question was asking. And with only 0:14.4 (seconds) to answer each question, if you want to try and finish them all, you know you have to answer fast."

Former LSU cornerback Morris Claiborne, the highest-rated cornerback in the NFL draft, scored a 4 out of 50 on the Wonderlic test administered to prospects at the NFL scouting combine in February, sources confirmed to ESPN.

Atta boy Morris...

Wow. I answered the two sample questions in a matter of seconds, and everyone I've ever know could do the same. A 4?!? If you ever wanted proof of how terrible the SEC is in regards to its academics, look no further.

Shouldn't you get a higher score by just purely guessing? 

I've heard Claiborn has a learning disability.  Still, a 4 is pretty ridiculous

There are several versions of the Wonderlic test out there but mine had about 20 multiple choice (3 options). So yes, its really hard to get under an 8.

But MaizeRage, don't you know that they're 'visual learners' down south?
 
 

An LSU source told ESPN's Joe Schad that Claiborne is a "visual learner."
 
"Mo has a high football IQ," the source said. "He just learns in a different way. He's a visual learner. He can handle playbook and scheme in the NFL."

Yeah, no kidding.  My god, you could throw darts at the answers and score better than 4.  The test I took a few years back had so many questions that seemed like they were written by a child, it was stunning to think someone could miss so many of them.  Yikes.

After reading another board... supposedly there are 50 questions and you aren't penalized for wrong answers. So if there is 4 choices by pure luck you should at least get a 12.5... if there are 5 choices you should get at least a 10. 

See ball...run to ball...catch ball....knock **** out of player....celebrate with teammates.

Go Blue!!

No jthorp24. Like I said, the version I took had 20 multiple choice questions, with there being 3 options (EX: A, B or C). So by purely guessing you should be able to get atleast a 6 or a 7. One of the options was always crazy, so a 10 should be the bar minimum, with guessing. The other 30 were fill in the blank or another example of a question was to draw a line on this image to create 4 squares and a triangle. Honestly, I wasn't close to finishing all 50 questions either. I got a 38 out of the 49 I answered and the 50th was a paragraph long and asked to do 5 different calculations. If you're going to even finish all 50, they make you earn it.

Theres a solid 20 question example one for you. Set the clock to 4:48 and see how you do.

The last time i did the wonderlic it was way back in the day when i took this stray chick home from the bar. :P
