Entrepreneurship Quiz

by Prof. Scott ShaneI was introduced to Professor Scott Shane at Case Western Reserve University by Tate & Lyle's Simon Barnes, see the Allylix podcast. Scott took awhile to return my email... because he's recently published a new book: Illusions of Entrepreneurship. My copy is on its way.

Scott tantalized me with his Entrepreneurship Quiz, especially his taunt: "perhaps you can do better than Guy Kawasaki's 40%".

So my taunt to you, see if you can do better than my 55%! Post your scores in the Comments, below.

25%. Interesting statistics

Have really enjoyed your interviews of Ian Sobieski and Bill Payne, Frank, and thanks for alerting me to Scott Shane's test, on which I scored 35%... I know Scott well (he is a member of one of the three angel groups I belong to here in Ohio) and already have his book on order.

Keep up the great work! Looking forward to seeing you in San Diego at the ACA Summit. Cheers, J.

I got 40%, not much better than pure guessing.

Frank - thanks

Barely passed, I got 70%, and that was with some quizmanship (spoilers edited out). But I do know a lot of the stats on small business from SBA FAQs for my workshops.

Some are startling; e.g.

Fun test
