My son recently joined the Crania Mania site. This is a site for students ages 13-18 to test their knowledge on certain subjects. Each game consists of 10 questions, and your score depends on the percentage you get correct and how fast you answer them. There is one score in the Algebra section of 100% in 5.84 seconds. Now I believe this is absolutely impossible to read the question and answer it in half a second. The time starts counting down as soon as the question appears. It gives you 4 multiple choice answers. As soon as you answer the question, time stops until you hit the next question button. Right now, my son is in 5th place with 100%, and 65.49 seconds. The closest to first place finished with 23.92. That score I can believe, but that score of 5.84 I don't believe. Is there some sort of program out there that makes it possible to cheat at this game? I would like to understand how this person is doing this. Nobody can possible be that fast!
