The Wonderlick test made Tom Brady look so stupid they thought he could not play quaterback..

The 'magic' number is supposedly 27 It is debatable but supposedly the odds of success for a QB drop exponentially if they score below a 27 on the Wonderlic.

To me all it means is Gabbert was that guy in high school. The way over 6 foot, pretty boy, super-jock, that also happened to be one of the smartest kids in class.

While an average football player usually scores around 20 points, Wonderlic, Inc. claims a score of at least 10 points suggests a person is literate. Furthermore, when the test was given to miscellaneous people of various professions, it was observed that the average participant scored a 24. Examples of scores from everyday professions include:

* Chemist – 31
* Programmer – 29
* Journalist – 26
* Sales – 24
* Bank teller – 22
* Clerical worker – 21
* Security guard – 17
* Warehouse – 14
