I could imagine this overtaking the likes of Quizlet for SO use after some polishing. Very cool! I'd also like to believe that readily available study tools like this would, in theory, raise the bar for some teams who wouldn't otherwise practice this way.

This is a great way to study, I ought to give my thanks to the person who created it.
But one flaw I thought of when taking the Rocks and Minerals test was that when I wrote, "Jasper" or "Jasper Quartz" or "Quartz - Jasper", it said I was wrong and the answer was, "Quartz [Jasper]"
Maybe there is a way to change that so that anything with jasper in it is correct or something? (same thing with all the gypsums and other quartz)
This seems like a great way to study and I hope this improves and builds up with a more variety of events.

Take your time, the quiz is already great and a helpful studying tool.
I am surprised no one has created something like this before, it is such a great idea!

thanks for the encouragement, its good to know people are finding utility in it

It's not working at all for me. I'm pressing "begin quiz/apply filters" and nothing is happening. .-.

Hm, try it now.

Okay, it works now.
There's no picture when the answer is Sphingidae larvae on Entomology.
And also, the picture for Miridae says Miridae on it.

yup, ill remove that miridae photo
still ironing out bugs :/ (pun intended)

This could definitely replace Quizlet in the long run, but does need some improvements. How could I help to add events like Astronomy to the site?
