Some of the answers you will probably know immediately, others will make you hesitate, but all together will give you the opportunity to discover how broad and impressive the knowledge you have accumulated over the years is.
There is knowledge that is learned in school, and there is knowledge that is accumulated in a different way throughout life. A bit from this morning's newspaper, a bit from a book you read years ago, a bit from an interesting TV show, a trip in Israel or the world, a conversation with friends or even an intriguing fact you came across by chance. Over time, all these pieces of information come together into a personal and special store of general knowledge, one that has been built up over years and sometimes hides in memory until the right question comes and brings it to life. The general knowledge test in front of you is designed to test exactly this database. Varied questions from the fields of history, science, geography, culture, nature and more await you here, along with some surprising facts that will challenge even the curious among you. Some of the answers you will probably know immediately, others will make you hesitate, but all together will give you the opportunity to discover how broad and impressive the knowledge you have accumulated over the years is. So are you ready to discover what is really hidden in your knowledge base?
