I got mostly lucky. I cannot stand reading every single word on anything that is printed that I do not 100% devote myself to. And if I did devote myself to it, I would read it over and over probably 2-3 times at least. So I just got lucky and answered 2 of 3 questions right, could have skipped something important...

I enjoy being a slow reader.

I'm just a simple man trading a simple plan.

Maybe I am just good at multiple choice...
it iz not very scientific. I think it is a scalping test. How fast can you hit 2 buttons.
