Could You Pass Eighth Grade Science?

Well, duh! If I scored anything less I'd be hanging my head in shame. Now go and see how you do.

  3. Since I am the science liaison at my school I figured I'd do pretty well... I was incredibly wrong on that one, let's just say I got more than half but was no where near passing. Oops! Guess I need to study! I do well on Are you smarter than a 5th grader :-)

  4. Hi Lindsey,
    Great to hear from you! The problem with these tests is that they're all about memorization. I have a head stuffed full of useless science facts and vocabulary words, so I do really well. I'd much rather see a test that asks kids to apply what they know about science to what happens in the world around them.
