I missed four - and I'm in college algebra (getting an A, too!) right now. I haven't had geometry for so long, and I missed those.

I passed magna cum laude - got 8 out of 10. Whew! It's been a very long time since I was in 8th grade, and I knew I'd screw up the last one, so wasn't trying too hard. Not bad for an Illustration major, eh?

I got 10 right.:D

Of course, I am really old, so I should have.:eek:;) Actually my dad is a math nut, he loves this stuff. So I was bombarded by this from a very young age. Now if it were a grammer or spelling quiz I would have probably gotten them all wrong.

Thanks for the link that was fun.:)

I got all 10 out of 10 right. :D I have always been a math freak, so its not surprising. Give me chemistry or biology and my results would be a whole different story...I hate science...

:p

I'm really old, too! :eek:

I've never been a math person, but my major requires calculus, so there you go.

I got the questions where you had to figure out the Pythagorean theorem since we just went over that stuff.

I still struggle with the stuff, despite my decent grades. I suspect I'll end up with a B for the class - I always bog on finals. :(

Probably not! Not to long ago, I took a digital technology college course. It was all older adults in the class. We were cracking up because the professor was trying to teach us binary numbers and stuff, and she wound up having to stop and give a lesson on long division before she could move on. None of us could even remember how to properly divide without a calculator.

I detest math. Was never any good at it and I can tell you now that I don't even have to look at it that the answer would be no.

I got 6/10! I'm going into 7th Grade, but I'm Homeschooled and I think that helps *a lot*, but maybe I'm a touch baised :p

Uhhh, I only got 6 right, but it's a long time since I was in school and I hated math. I was so envious of my older sister, she went to school in the country and only had to go every other day.

I got 10/10. I am a certified teacher and 8th grade is in my certification area. However, I haven't taught anything above 5th grade in years, and I'm not teaching at all right now. I was afraid I would be rusty.
