Wow impressive, that's a pretty high score. I saw this in the headlines a couple days ago.
NFL draft gurus pay attention to this IQ test and it factors in to all the evaluations of the players.
Funny thing is I just read an article today that mentions Brian Brohm also scored an identical score of 32.

How QB's scored on Wonderlics
Posted: Sunday March 23, 2008 08:09AM ET
One of the many variables NFL teams are factoring into their draft grades are scores from the Wonderlic tests given at the scouting combine. Wonderlic tests are given to help gauge the intelligence of prospects. NFL teams expect most prospects will score well because players can prepare for the tests. When a player has an unusually low score, it sets off alarms. At the quarterback position, none of the top prospects laid a Wonderlic egg.
Boston College's Matt Ryan, he of the off-the-charts intangibles, scored an impressive 32. And his score was matched by Lousiville's Brian Brohm, who is the second-highest-rated quarterback after Ryan on most boards.
Joe Flacco of Delaware scored a 27 and Chad Henne of Michigan scored a 22. Both are considered second-round prospects.

I am really getting mad, it's almost like a conspiracy the media and draft people seem to be operating in HYPING Matt Ryan and dissing Brohm.
This article I found wasnt a very big deal, just a blip, a paragraph while the first time I read it days ago Matt Ryans name was in the headlies with his score of 32.
By the way Dan Marino scored a 13 on his Wonderlic test, still went on to be one of the most prolific passers in NFL history so .....so much for the Wonderlic.
RB Frank Gore also scored a 13.
