5 out of 10 for me. It was a bit annoying that I had to scroll down to click on the next question button - small thing, but annoying.
Interesting quiz.0 -
Worked fine for me. Didn't need to scroll down during the quiz at all, only needed to do this when reviewing the answers. Using Firefox and a 12" screen0

For Question 2, the first year nurse has a quoted salary £20,710
The source given gives no pay points matching this value?

For Question 3, you exclude PFI repayments from being debt, as for example described in the article below. This gives a impression that such repayments are not related to debt

For question 6, I quote: "As the total government spending in 2008/09 is £620 million". This should be in billions, not millions.
For question 9, where is your source of data?
Quoted Source http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-files/Guardian/documents/2008/09/12/13.09.08.Public.spending.pdf
NHS 90.7bn in 2008/09 out of Department of Health spending of 105.7 bn (=86%)
Then more recent data also from the Guardian:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/datablog/2009/sep/16/public-spending-departments-money-cuts
Puts Department of Health Spending at 109.4bn
If NHS spending remained 86% of Department of Health spending, then NHS budget would be 94bn, closer to your answer of 97bn presented as the third option on the list.
Also more generally, on page:
