80%!
Apparently I know mathematicians better than the people here at EA. 
Also, the process of elimination worked out wonderfully for the last four.

Wee-hee! 100% from me, too - puring guessing on some of them based on, as Wivabef noted, elimination. But I knew some of them on my own, too.

English, humanities and music major. 
I got 70% on pure guesswork. I did not know one single answer.

I tried to put a lot of logical elimination into it for you.

I have no logic. I rely on instinct. Pure instinct.

I pulled a lot of it from a kids web site. The other stuff, I remembered from high school, movies, etc. Some of it was pop culture and I tried to allow you to guess the rest.

100%. Was convinced I would beat the quiz until I hit number four. Then I started guessing randomly. Except for the bathtub one and the other obvious "let them think they're not complete idiots" give-away question.

Dang it. 80%. But I accidentally clicked the wrong one on #7, which I DID know... I was confused when I saw 0% on that one. Grrrr. |

80%. Much better than I anticipated. And, most of them I knew even.

Never saw the movie. | Oh, my god, why not? It's SUCH a well done movie. You MUST go see it, and no, I can't tell you anything about WHY you have to see it.

Never saw the movie but certainly heard enough about it to know the right name for the quiz.
