What is this magical test? How can someone get a copy and see exactly what is on it? Do teams use the scores to determine whether they will draft a player?

If they do Marcus Vick could be in trouble.

Vince Young's terrible Wonderlic score received plenty of attention, but Marcus Vick fared even worse. Both players raised doubts about their decision-making under pressure, says Todd McShay.

Maybe he has 2 weapons just like his brother. :rotf:

Don't know the answers to your questions, but I think this is borderline draft forum material.

I have taken a wonderlic test before, it is not difficult at all. Don't know what my final score was, but it was high enough to have the company call me that evening and offer me a job. There are random questions ranging from recognizing patterns and sequences to simple math questions. All in all it was relatively easy. So, you would have to be a moron (see Vick brothers, McNabb, Young) to get below a 20 on the test.

They also look for consistency within your answers. Something about the way that you answer one question to the next. Quite a few corporations use them to evaluate "talent" :rolleyes: ....You would have to be mildly ******ed or not interested to score extremely low. Correct me if I am wrong Loose Cannon....less academics and quite a bit of logistics?

Don't forget Marino, he scored less than all of them.

Some of the test has to do with general knowledge, one would have to know the meaning of a word to answer the question. Definitely a lot more logic is used than academics.
