I also really like this picture hence no lj-cut:

The Librarian You scored 65 erudition!

Congratulations! You're well above average when it comes to your knowledge of English grammar, history, and literature. You may have missed a few questions, but if you keep your studies up and stay away from genre fiction, we'll have you ready for Stanford in no time! Who knows, we just might be reading your columns in Talk of the Town a few years from now.

My test tracked 1 variable How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 9% on erudition

Some of the questions' choices gave the answer away, while others were impossible to guess which the author intended; for example, The New Yorker is all of important (or so I hear), pretentious, boring, and is known for having unfunny cartoons.
