the math one. >.< i am no good at math.

the way they know the demographics: that this test was used in a study that broke down the test takers by age, race, and education level.

they found that blacks scored very low, then hispanics at about 5/10 non college and 7/10 college, then whites at 7/10 non college and 9/10 college.

a very depressing breakdown considering the projected demographics of this country and the easy nature of the questions.

conclusion: we are never going to mars
