If you spend enough time online, you would have come across plenty of quizzes that promise to test the extent of your general knowledge. But, you may be thinking, "why would I want to spend time on them?" Well, let us answer that!
General knowledge is basic information about what's going on in the world from past to present, which makes it an important part of your life. If you don't have a good grasp on such knowledge, you may find it hard to participate in intelligent conversations, hindering your social interaction and narrowing the scope that you can learn from others. Another plus point is that you get a boost for your decision-making skills. With better awareness of current affairs, you can make decisions based on the current climate and environment. Doing general knowledge quizzes will help you pick up information that may come in handy in competitive scenarios like job interviews. Depending on your area of expertise, you may be able to share nuggets of interesting trivia to impress your potential boss.
Take the hardest general knowledge quiz you'll find today to test how good your general knowledge really is!

The question: “Which team has won the most Super Bowls?” is a trick question. Both the New England Patriots and the Pittsburgh Steelers have won 6 Super Bowls. Now, if the question were “Which team has won the most Super Bowls while only losing 2?” the answer, Pittsburgh Steelers, would be correct because while the New England Patriots also won 6 Super Bowls, they also lost 5 of them.
