I've done these "tests" at that site.... mostly sports, sitcoms, music, geography. My fiancee had me hooked on them for awhile. you ALWAYS over estimate yourself. when you have the time pressure feature, it really makes you BLANK and even though you KNOW the stuff in your brain. you can't get it out.

I think Mr. X gets about 96
 
Okay, I'm going to take it now. The under 106.5 is a stone cold lock. I think the under 65.5 is a lock, too. I'll blank on at least 10 I should know, probably more. Spelling will trip me up on more than a few. And I've had no reason to think about elements in, like, 18 years. I hope I get 40, that seems like a lot.
 
Brains are awful things, sometimes. I couldn't get 'linoleum' out of my head. Total brain-lockup at about 6:00 remaining.

At least I met my self-imposed goal.

41. Thanks for the confidence, people, no matter how misplaced.

Well I studied sciences in university but more importantly, I refresh my memory on the periodic table every year when I take the Jeopardy test. That was like February this year but still, my head tends to retain junk and also there are some patterns that stick with me (i.e. - bunches of elements named after places/scientists/mythological characters etc).

There really should be a betplomium though IMO.
