Some say common sense is more important than intellectual knowledge. Do you agree or disagree? Being book smart and having common sense are two totally different things. While someone might be able to ace a high school SAT test, they might be completely clueless when it comes to how to boil water, how to drive a car, or how to have a normal social interaction with someone. Others might have great instincts about most things but not be able to pass a math test if their life depended on it.
So how much common sense do you have? Do you think you’re more instinctive than most other people? This quiz will ask you a few questions about your common sense and you’ll answer them to the best of your ability. Then we’ll tell you if you’re common senseless or a common sensei! Ready to get started? Sit back, put on your thinking cap, and let’s go!
