35 General Knowledge Questions That Separate The Smart From The Average – Test Yourself

Do you consider yourself a general knowledge pro? This quiz will tell!

We all like to think we’ve picked up a decent amount of knowledge over the years. Random facts from school. Things we’ve read online. Stuff we’ve seen in documentaries. Bits from pop culture moments or historical events. This quiz pulls from all of that, so you never quite know what kind of question is coming next.

And here’s the twist – there are no answer options this time. You’ll need to type the answers yourself!

If you’re up for more general knowledge challenges after this one, make sure to check out Part 1 here, too.

Good luck – and don’t overthink it too much! 🧠

    I got two of the ones where you had to type in a number totally wrong but it said I was right!

    32 is technically Phalaenopsis - which I not only knew, but spelt correctly and was very annoyed when it was marked wrong - the answer is a very broad category of flowers.

    Fun fact: in the first few editions of 'Peter Pan and Wendy' the fairy's name was Tinker and her surname was Bell. Tinker Bell became Tinkerbell in later editions.

    24 is also incorrect. Australia is the largest island in the world, it is 3 times larger than Greenland.

    Australia is geographically a continent, although it is informally called an 'island continent'. Technically, every unbroken land mass is also an island.

    23 is not really correct. When people exhale it is mostly nitrogen that is expelled. The correct answer should be Air. Only 5% of what we exhale is carbon dioxide, 16% of it is is oxygen and approximately 75% is nitrogen.

    Very badly worded question. We take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide, with the remaining constituents unchanged. This is the opposite of plants, which absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
