If you’ve not already had a go at the questions, it’s not too late!
We’d be interested to know how everyone did. The feedback we’ve had suggested it was pretty tough, and a few people I know got scores in the single digits. So, I think anyone who did better than half marks (without looking the answers up!) knows the sky pretty well!
I managed 19, but probably only knew 10. Not so much the 9 correct answers I alighted upon, but the 3 I thought I knew but actually didn’t that stick in the memory.
As family entertainment…. I’m afraid after 5 questions a group decision was made to abandon the quiz in favour of “Exploding kittens”.
I’m glad we provided family entertainment with the first five questions at least :-).
This was a first for the BAA, and my co-conspirator (James Dawson) and I weren’t sure how difficult to make the questions. I was keen not to have people getting full marks, so we went for a spread from ‘difficult’ to ‘very difficult’. On balance, I think perhaps we’ll include some slightly easier questions next year!
