This came up today about Elizabeth Warren.
As a kid (one might assume around age 17)....1966....she came up and won some type of Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow scholarship.
I read through the piece....this was done at the local high school....not at the national level.
Basically, you took a 50-min test....loaded with 150 questions. Do the math, that means every 20 seconds or so....she had to come to a conclusion.
The subjects of the test? Family relationships, religious stuff and moral values, kid development, health, safety, money management, leisure time, home care and beautification, your local community and further education.
How she won the contest? My humble guess is that there were only five or six girls in the group who attempted this, and maybe out of the 150 questions.....she got sixty of these correct. The mere suggestion that she even got a hundred questions answered in the 50 minutes? No, I just can't believe that's possible.
Would that Betty Crocker business hype you to vote for her? That's the oddball thing.....southerners like that kind of stuff, but you notice.....this was not for a cooking or baking project, it was just for a test of knowledge.
