19/20 flunked on one and I knew it must have had an old age brainstorm, vey annoying.
You got 14 out of 20!
You scored better than 11% of players!
Well, hello there doctor! We said you didn’t have to be in the medical profession to do well in this quiz, but we’d certainly trust you to take our pulse any day. You’ve dodged the bad breath, negotiated the bends and been obsessive about getting the correct answers. You scaled the heights of this quiz without getting a nosebleed, and climbed down with a wonderful score.
Now it’s time to prescribe these questions to your friends and test their medical minds!
I thought I would get a lower score
