http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wonderlic_Test "Average scores for other professions"
Quote
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.[2] 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
Use in the NFL Combine
Though used in a variety of institutions, the Wonderlic test has become best known for its use in the NFL pre-draft assessments of prospective football players.
This assessment roughly corresponds to examples from Paul Zimmerman's The New Thinking Man's Guide to Pro Football. According to Zimmerman, examples of average scores for each position are:
Offensive tackle -- 26
Center -- 25
Quarterback -- 24 (Most teams want at least 21 for a quarterback.)[6]
Guard -- 23
Tight end -- 22
Safety -- 19
Linebacker -- 19
Cornerback -- 18
Wide receiver -- 17
Fullback -- 17
Halfback -- 16
Now I'm tempted to take the test and see if I beat 29 or if I am "over the hill" for my profession ;) http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=wonderlic/090218
