I got the right answer, but I still find the "birthdays" question totally disingenous. "Birthday" has a very specific connotation that is NOT "the actual date of one's birth." In fact... the term we use for that is "date of birth."
As for the Ark question... I've heard it before, but fell for it this time. The funny thing is, I heard it out loud the first time, and didn't fall for it then. It goes to show you that people read what they want to read.

Missed one, that stupid ark question. What do I know from the bible?
I don't know why anybody should have to know that stuff.
10 out of 11. I missed the one about the pills, but it's ambiguous in my opinion.
9 of 11. I missed the pills (which I agree is ambiguous) and totally fanned on the ark question.
Sad thing is that I have taken this exact test several times adn I always always miss the arc one.

You get an extra point if you subsequently describe a question as "disingenuous," so you're golden, Dr.
