Just some thoughts for caution with all those internet quizzes we see online.....
"You have an IQ of over 165 if you can answer 20 of these questions" "Can you name these TV shows from the 50's and 60's?"
If you go through and answer them, you are letting the agency that posted them get a good guess at your age and education level, and with the cookies they place on your computer, they'll be able to target advertise to you at your next visit. (Geritol, brain supplements, etc)
If you visit using a private browser or a VPN, you may have some protection against them posting cookies on your computer.
Remember too, they sell any data they gather on you to anyone who will buy it.
