Think you know your science fact from your science fiction?

Well now you can really put your knowledge to the test with the fantastic weekly New Scientist quiz app. Designed to push your mind to its scientific limits the app has been devised in our special quiz laboratory to be full of taxing multiple choice questions that you need to answer against the clock.

Once you've faced the 10 questions you can then share your score and challenge your friends on Facebook and Twitter to find out how your knowledge compares to theirs. So will you be able to make a scientific breakthrough and make it onto the Top 10 leader-board or will your quiz experiment end in failure? If you don't reach the heights of the prestigious top scorers there's always next weeks’ quiz to try again and improve your score! For a microscopic 79p you can get new questions every week for a whole year so it's challenging on the brain but easy on the wallet!

    Needs to give answers at end, not something you can learn anything from. But fun to do anyway.

    I like this app, mind you I have always liked New Scientist! You have to be quick, and reading this weeks NS does help! some answers I think are impossible to know from general knowledge, makes it that much more challenging! Take the quiz...

    Considering what you can get for your money or even free in the marketplace this extremely limited app is poor value.
