The Super Quiz is an ever-changing quiz that appears in newspapers across the country to test readers’ knowledge. The quiz was originally created by Isaac Asimov and now has variations around the world. Back in the day, Super Quiz was even a board game, featuring decks of cards with trivia questions and score sheets.
Most Super Quizzes have a set theme, such as “Two Word Book Titles”, “Three Letter Words” and “Birds”. The quiz is divided into three levels: freshman, graduate and doctorate. Each level has a different level of difficulty, with Ph.D. be the hardest. For each question you get right at the freshman level, you get 1 point. For each correctly asked question at the graduate level, 2 points. For each correct question in the PhD, 3 points. The more points you have at the end of solving the quiz, the smarter you are considered to be.
