But it does work, on average.

I re-posted this link on a message board full of very cautious mothers (they veer into paranoidly cautious, if you ask me). Everyone there who bothered to take the test got a score of 84 or higher.

And most people here who bothered to take the test got mid/low 50s and below.

So there is something to climbers being risk-takers?

whaoh there...You said risk-takers...thats different than risk assessment. Way different.

It's not only about risk assessment. If you were really smart you would know all the answers definitely and get a perfect score without having to assess any risk.

I think its safe to say that if you've been anywhere and reached any of your goals then you are good at risk assessment. Test be damned!
