Donovan A. Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Click here to take the test!This test has been designed to assess your comprehension of Understanding Objectivism: A Guide to Learning Ayn Rand’s Philosophy (UO) Lectures by Dr. Leonard Peikoff (Book Edited by Michael S. Berliner). Questions have been formed from the book version, chapters (lectures) 5 – 6 only. Subsequent tests will cover additional chapters of the book. It is not intended to be an open book test. There are 25 questions – each is worth 4 points. This test can be taken by students before and after reading UO (as a pre and/or post-test). Only reading Ayn Rand’s fictional work will not be sufficient preparation to excel on this test. This assessment can help students of Objectivism and study-group organizers determine the ideal study materials and is not intended to evaluate one’s agreement with Objectivism.Note: All questions are formed from assertions and arguments made by the author of the book/material. When answering test questions, please keep in mind that the “correct” answer is based on those assertions. The Culture of Reason Center does not necessarily endorse the positions articulated in the subject material.Test Score Range:0-60: Minimal understanding (Low) – Basic study needed65-70: Moderate understanding (Low-Mid) – Basic study needed75-80: Good understanding (Intermediate) – Basic study review needed85-90: Competent (High-Mid) – Proceed to more technical studies95-100: Advanced (High) - Proceed to more technical studiesIn order to receive your test score, you will be asked to provide your name and email address.
