The Really Hard Classics Quiz.
This is a really happy ish quiz: 100 questions (multiple choice or true/false, covering all aspects of Classics) to be answered in under 30 minutes. A certificate if you get 90% or more - but all who take it will get a full breakdown of scores, missed questions, time taken etc. Only works in Explorer, I'm afraid.
