Curious...

I had a go at this:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/quiz/2009/mar/27/gcse-science-quiz

mainly out of curiosity, as it is many years since I did my O'levels. I'm not a scientist at all and I haven't studied science since I was 15. I found that when it came to these questions, mostly I was answering based on what seemed most likely to me, rather than based on knowing the answer. I was expecting to do badly.
I scored 7/8.
I'm not sure what that says about me. Radio 4 listener, maybe?

I also scored 7/8. This set of questions had some that could be solved by logic as much as science, and one that made no sense to me at all. (I hope that's the one I missed.)
