How observant are you?

See how many of these questions you can get right? The average person only gets 7. This is based on U.S. & CDN info, so use all lobes of your brain.

This test just tells us how observant of everyday details we are. There are 27 questions. Take this test and then look under the comments for the answers and reply with the number that you got right.

Don't cheat and look at the answers first! There is also no going around the house looking for the answers. Once you start, there is no getting out of your chair...not even to go to the bathroom. And be honest! Here we go:
