I missed the very first question, and most of the next ten.... then I gave up.

Congratulations on your score, though!

You did so well on this test you're basically ready to treat people. At least on TV.

Meh. It's just a science test.

For those of us with Liberal Arts degrees, it was a bit difficult in spots!

But I got all of the A & P questions correct. I guessed wrong on a few chem and environment questions.

Basically a doctor.

I'm kicking myself for some of the answers I gave which I hadn't thought through. I really should have remembered PH 7 being neutral for example.

Still, basically a doctor they said. So if anyone here wishes to volunteer for my surgery practice let me know.

But then I did quite well in biology, must have stuck in my mind. But I did pretty poorly on the ones I just guessed at...

My undergrad major was kinesiology (pre-physical therapy back in the day), so I had a lot of science classes. Missed a couple of questions I should
have gotten right.

They make it easy enough to keep you interested and moving forward, throw in a few difficult ones to make you feel it's a challenge, but in the end they are nothing more than click bait. They got at least 80 clicks out of me. Click to get the question, then click to answer.

Maybe I'll have better will power the next time.

I missed one, and it was one I know but mis-clicked. It was the one on natural selection.

To be honest, I'm pretty much a dumbass with no medical training. I know galvanized metal, and water chemistry due to my life experiences. I know (very) basic anatomy thanks to elementary school. Most of the other stuff just was picked up by reading over the years.
