Difficult quiz this week. Apparently I got #3 wrong. So I will be very interested in the answers to see if I can twist the question or the answer enough so that I wasn’t necessarily wrong. I got no idea why I got it wrong at the moment so thinking about arguing measurement errors. Unless it turns out I was actually correct…
Thanks for the quiz.
Two outa three! No2 wrong. In my inimitable fashion, I took a wild guess. Wrong!
Yep… pretty much a mind scramble but 2 out of 3…
really enjoying these brain teasers…. :)
3 out of 3, for 2 weeks running!
This comes as a bit of a surprise tbh. Encouraging, because my strategy was to just go with instinct and not to overthink the questions, but I’m also wondering if it could just be pure chance, and it’ll be 0 out of 3 next week.
Wow, my fist 100%!
However, I was unsure about the terminology at times and worried if I had made the right assupmtions. I’m intrigued to see if I’m learning something substantioal or if my guesses are just getting less wild.
Cheers!
2/3
Number 2 wrong. Bit baffled.
