7, but I got lucky on the biology questions, including one where I accidentally clicked the right answer.

7 out of 7. How I got the main voltage question I will never know!

I did have a slight advantage here being a biologist.

They've also released a maths GCSE question set, which annoyingly involves actually working things out.

I wondered what all these cryptic EU comments were about!

6/7

My uninterruptable power supply meters regularly report a value matching the required answer so I nearly clicked on that... then got too clever for myself and fixated on the word "officially" and thought that overrides any observations to the contrary.

I regularly mess up quiz questions from the tendency to correct my 'instinctive' answer too. Grrr.

I too missed Q7. Trick question. I protest! I got all the others right (mostly by guessing) . . . and I'm an electronics technician!

Thank goodness I scored 7. English science is obviously the same as Scottish science (Standard Grade).
