Today, I couldn't answer almost any of the questions in the game "Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?" I'm a 40 year old man. FML

The questions on that show don't indicate intelligence. Almost all of the things they ask are about pointless knowledge that nobody truly learns in school. What they test people with is as pointless as a crossword puzzles. Remember, there's a difference between being smart and knowing things.

That show is SO beyond 5th grade. I was watching an episode my junior year of high school, and they asked a question that I had learned less than two weeks prior. And of course the fake 5th grader knew it. Bullshit!

Don't worry about it. That information is fresh out those kids minds. Who really cares if you don't know most of the questions on there. A lot of people don't. A 5th grader is not smart enough to live on its own.

it's ok, they only ask questions that are relevant to a 5th grader's curriculum. i can't answer some of those questions either, but it doesn't mean i'm dumb, it just isn't relevant or current anymore.

Seriously people? Now I'll admit that I have really only watched the German version, but it's ******* easy. How about you all pay attention in class, and if you're done with high school or college (and still can't answer questions on that show) go read some damn books.

well I guess that effectively proves that you aren't smarter than a fifth grader.

i love how half of these people said that the 5th grade show has "knowledge superior to the mind of 5th graders" if you're in fifth grade and you don't know that shit, you're dumb as hell if you're above fifth grade and just learned that shit, you must go to school half the year and gather the harvest the other half, because i learned the 5th grade shit when i was in about 3rd grade... dumbasses. yeah i'd be embarrassed if i didn't know those questions either. ****** scrub

Uhm yeah, I'm in an advanced program at school and I usually don't know 1 or 2 questions. That is definitely not grade 5 level questions. If you learned the things that they ask on the show, that just proves that you're learning useless shit that will get you no where in life. And, apparently everyone on that show are dumbasses because no one has yet to answer every question correctly. Stop basing peoples' intellegence based on a TV show.

isnt that the point of the show? to show that elementary schools just teach random crap that no one will ever remember?
