After reading the feedback I've made the following changes (after the first 104 entries so that anyone who has access to the data can check if there are significant differences before and after these changes):
I did NOT add an "Other" to politics despite requests to do so, because I tried this last time and ended up with people sending me manifestos. I want to encourage people to choose whichever of those categories they're closest to. If you really don't identify at all with any of those categories, just leave it blank.
Should anyone retake the survey? I'd be willing to if you can cancel the my first version-- I'll give the same answers on the Newton question.
Not as good as if someone can find a satisfactory IQ test, but could you add an SAT option for intelligence measurement?
I used percents for all my probabilities, including the one which was .5.
Could you also add an ATAR/UAI, A-levels, Abitur and IB option?
(It might be better to add a box asking for marks/certificate received upon leaving high school and the name of the program; with sufficient respondents there may be enough data to say meaningful things)
Some of us are still in high school.
I'd also be willing (I'd probably rather) retake the quiz.
But there is a problem with calibration at that point, with the question about Newton.
