Lets test a bunch of General Studies and Social Work majors and then critique them based on what they scored. Wonderful idea, as if I thought the hillbilly majoring in General Education with a 2.1 was going to test high.

These bastards aren't engineers to begin with.

I've taken the real one also, and I disagree. It is very similar. But I'm sure you're still a brain as well.

I am really not sure how someone that got into LSU could make a 9.

Guys with Peterson's talent could not be able to spell CAT, and still be fine.


In scoring a 9, perhaps he cannot.

I hope the NFL gets its act togethor soon,so Peterson can sign a contract. If not, I hope he stays healthy, or he may be toweling off cars the rest of his life.

I could see it being an issue for Oline (making reads for schemes etc) and QB's, but everyone else? I don't think it matters. It's football, not rocket science.

Does your computer have a virtual keyboard? If not, you can hold ALT and enter 32 from the keypad.

Regardless of what they scored, what significance does the Wonderlic Test really have? Is it just a money maker for the company who administers the test--seems to me there's a good chance it is not a fair indicator of how successful an NFL career a prospect will have.

I've taken sample tests and done well on them.. it's not that hard, BUT, I thought the test was a load of crap.

If the sample questions are really similar to those used on the test, a 9 would be a total embarrassment. I think many of us could do that just guessing at the answers.

the average NFL DB score is 17.

20 is supposed to equate with 100 IQ.


I sure hope he makes it in football.

and please someone, be his financial guide.
This guy needs to put it all in a house and treasuries.
nothing fancy.

Won't matter on the field.

It does make LSU look bad. Jawalrus didn't help either.
