Which is about right, considering I'm an undergrad with interest in the field.

I tried only 3 actually, :) because I was more interested in /how/ it works, than in the test itself. Of the three, the only one I got right was where the title of the fake one was PDFs -- hardly a real article could afford to be called that. While for the other two, even after the truth was revealed, the titles of the fake ones looked more (or at least as) authentic as the real ones. P.S. - I did 10 more of them, and got 70% this time, but still maintain that the generator is very good. -- You'd be crazy to e-mail me with the crazy.
