How do you not ace that test?

How do you not ace that test?

Because it is timed.

Mayo = smarter beast than Rivers...

 

[Bourbon]

I heard Mayo interviewed on Sirius a few weeks ago and he was by far the most impressive interview I've heard (out of probably 15-20). He sounded intelligent, grounded in reality, and football smart. He blew away the hosts. I wish there were a way we could trade down and get him or get him in the second.

I agree with whiteboycarl: how do you not ace that test? - even if it is timed (unless you only have like two minutes). The only semi-difficult one is number 11, which requires knowing a little more than rudimentary math.

By the way, the answer given to #5 is incorrect.

I don't remember what the time limit is, but it is short enough that the test is at least semi-difficult to take. Even the smartest ivy league guys usually get high 30's low 40's on it.

 

[Fun Bunch]

Its 50 questions in 12 minutes, I think.

 

[SaintSpyNDallas]

The questions are not hard, but you only have 5 min to finish 50 questions. (or was that only for the sample?) Even so, I think they should be getting AT LEAST a 25. If the time limit IS more like 12 min, they should be getting at least 40.

Assume the first two to be true:
1. Rivers is an OLB with great speed.
2. Mayo is smarter than Rivers
3. Rivers will have more sacks than Mayo.

I have always thought that with out Sam Mill being able to call out the plays the opposing team was running was the key to the Dome Patrol. I am really hoping Villma will be able to do the same for us. With that said, you only need a couple of guys that can do that, the rest just need to be smart enough to follow their lead and be athletic enough to make the plays.

2. Mayo is smarter than Rivers
3. Rivers will have more sacks than Mayo.

1. Mayo runs a 4.5.
2. Probably so
3. Mayo had more sacks as a Sophmore playing OLB (5) then Rivers has had the past two years (2) playing OLB.
