Florida OT Carl Johnson produced the worst score among this draft class, registering a 6, and Oklahoma State RB Kendall Hunter was the only other athlete to record a single digit, scoring a 9.

I can understand the "I'm just a bad test-taker" excuse, but there is absolutely no way to justify an honor student scoring a 9. How many points do you get for spelling your name correctly ?

Aggie, the hits keeo on coming. Rings and wonderlic. Great month of March for the pukes.

Great fark too.

[cccasooner2]

A story like this reminds me of the Leno "All-Star Challlenge" (I may have the title wrong). Inevitably, the contestants are college/university seniors that can't answer the questions a "challenged" third grader would breeze through.

Maybe it was his first test? Unbelievable.

Look at this way, a lot of the questions are multiple choice, with 50 questions and just guessng, you should get `12.5 right.

In the great tradition of Dexter Manley...

[Quik Sand]

Seems most of them on orangepower are defending his score. Had this been Murray, they would be calling for some sort of academic dishonesty.

Aggies are all the same, and they always find a way to brighten my day. Thank God for Internet

That would be correct. The wonderlic may not be a fool-proof gauge of intelligence, but a score of 9 makes me wonder how the guy managed to write a research paper or even pass a final exam.

Has anyone heard how DM scored ?

Evidently, not enough.

I would think they would mark down a fraction of a percent for misses, so that a random guess would produce a 0 on average. Not sure, though. Anyone know?

Zero is close enough. Assume 4 choices per, 50 questions, 1 point per question, nine correct, use binomial dist formula. About 7%.

So considering the expected spread of data about the average, Kendall's 9 is above that which would be expected by random guessing, but not by much.

The above link will take you to a 15 question practice test. I completed it in 4 minutes and got 14 right. Should have had all 15 but I was hurrying too much. The only thing that I can fathom is that these players that score low are not completing very many questions. I mean what if KH only completed 15 questions but got 9 right.

If the above link to the test is indicative of the real wonderlic I'm wondering why anyone would score less than 30. I mean I got 14 of 15 right in 4 minutes. If you have 12 minutes I would have completed 45 questions and gotten a score of 42. I am hoping the real wonderlic is a lot more difficult than the practice one.

Not likely. The Wonderlic is designed to separate the Vince Youngs from the Sam Bradfords, so you want to make it relatively easy. Otherwise the scores group too closely toward a low score. (They call this in assessment design "discrimination.")

[Leroy Lizard]

My favorite, from Orangepower:


Did KH get himself in any trouble while at OSU if not that is another tremendous measure of intelligence.

Time pressure is a big thing on the test, and the questions get harder. That sample test is not indicative of the real thing. Still, a 9 is absolutely pathetic.

Where I work they actually require us to take the Wonderlic. I took the sample one on ESPN also and the Wonderlic is more difficult. The one on ESPN is like the beginning of the Wonderlic, the farther you go the more difficult the questions become.

[S.PadreIsl.Sooner]

and pickin Weeds;)

or perhaps...pickin' weed.

That still doesn't excuse an honor student from scoring in the single digits

[TheHumanAlphabet]

OMFG, what was his major for a 4.0?

Oklahoma State, Best school in Oklahoma according to some top companies hiring (or whatever the hell they keep printing on their adverts).

Then why is the average starting salary for an osu business school grad lower than that of an OU business school grad? Oops, just got my answer there- the osu grad comes to work for you on the cheap.

[BOOMERBRADLEY]

it's times like these when I find it hilarious that pukes start the academic smack.

[PalmBeachSooner]

They weren't no wrasslin questions on it.

As bad as the 9 is, the Aggies do realize that the fact that he maintained a 4.0 GPA at their school makes them look even worse, right?

You would think! But i'm sure they will act like this never happened like Dexter Manley
