I tried to answer 6 of them and got 4 right. I would have got 5 right I think if I had shown more patience.
The ones that are heavily involved with math I am not that good with and skipped. Don't know if I would have got any of them if I spent the time on it.
Challenging , but I don't think you have to be a genius to get some of these - I did it !
Went through the whole thing, ended up with a total of 7 correct.
1,3,5,6,7,8,9
I KNOW I' not a genius... And today, I surely don't need a quiz to tell me just how un-genius-like I am... But it sounds like fun!
I don't think you have to be a genius, I know I'm not and I got 7 right and it should have been 8, but it does require a little thought.
It's just fun. Brain teasing.
Jane went to visit Jill . Jill is Jane's only husband's mother-in-law's only husband's only daughter's only daughter. What relation is Jill to Jane?
Sister? I hope? Maybe daughter...
I used to be pretty good at all this family stuff, but since my hip has been hurting all day, I'm not thinking straight...
I said step-daughter, Wrong.... (but on the right track)
I got 8 right. Missed # 3 and #10. I had "synchrony" for #10 ( "y" is only a vowel sometimes
Holy crap, say it isn't so!! There's no way!! Well, I'm damned and dashed! Hell hath frozen over and pigs everywhere have taken flight.
Apparently my mother has been right all these years. I'm not half as smart as I think I am.

Sometimes it is better to be wise than smart.
8.5
I missed the one on offspring relationships, (almost got it right I was on the right path but let my logic slip just a bit)
And the choice between Cherries and Pears.
the rest, no sweat. (for the purists I got 8)
