Test your forensic IQ

Villa Julie College's gimmick for getting students interested in forensic science degrees is a grueling five-part multiple choice online test designed to test your "forensic IQ."

If five out of six Sun reporters can ace the test, so can you. (Disturbingly, the journalist who missed a question is on the med/sci desk; he pleaded for anonymity.)

Hint: the correct answer to question #2 is not "Don't know answer." Hint to VJC folks: "know" doesn't start with an "n."

What do you think, Horatio?

"Duly noted, now beat it."

Gadi- We were so pleased to learn that Sun staffers (most of them) have a good Forensic IQ. Sorry that you found the 5 multiple choice questions "grueling"- college questions today are perhaps more complex than when you were in class. Regardless, there are important emerging tracks in this relatively new area of study (VJC offers the only comprehensive Forensic Studies program in the U.S.) Folks who visit the website can learn a lot about more than than the 5 questions... and we do apologize for the alphabetic pun.
