Do you know what you know? A Confidence Calibration Exercise http://confidence.success-equation.com/
"After answering each of the true/false questions below, indicate how confident you are in your answer using the corresponding slider. A value of 50% means you have no idea what the right answer is (the same probability as a random guess between the two choices); a value of 100% means you are completely confident in your answer." It seems to present the same questions each time, which is a shame. I'd love to try it fully alert. But my attempt at 4am, with an irritating headache, turned out this way: Mean confidence: 61.60% Actual percent correct: 78.00% You want your mean confidence and actual score to be as close as possible. Mean confidence on correct answers: 63.59% Mean confidence on incorrect answers: 54.55% You want your mean confidence to be low for incorrect answers and high for correct answers. Quiz score 39 correct out of 50 questions answered (78.00%) 27 correct out of 38 questions answered with low (50 or 60%) confidence (71.05%) 5 correct out of 5 questions answered with medium (70% or 80%) confidence (100.00%) 7 correct out of 7 questions answered with high (90 or 100%) confidence (100.00%) -- "Better to be slapped with the truth than kissed with a lie." ☤>$ uǝlƃ
