Kate Middleton’s royal knowledge was put to the test during hervisit to Scotland.
Prince Williamand Kate visited the University of Glasgow campus on Wednesday, where they spent time meeting many of the students who had gathered to catch a glimpse of the royal couple.
“It was two words of five and four letters,” the student later toldThe Times. “I couldn’t get the second word. I gave it to Kate and asked her as I’m sure she would have known. And she said it was ‘Civil List.’ "
“She was very excited. It didn’t look like she was going to get it for a moment. I’m really chuffed. I’m going to frame it. She looked thrilled. I think she thought, ‘I wouldn’t live this down if I get this wrong.’ "

Baird’s chance to ask for crossword help was completely unexpected, as he had no idea Kate andPrince Williamwere on campus.
“I’d been studying in the library for exams and saw a group of people out here and wondered what was going on,” he said.
So many students gathered to see Kate, 40, andPrince William, 39, that the couple later posted on social media apologizing for not getting to everyone.
“So many students! Sorry if we missed you,” their office said along with a video of the walkabout.
“Can you get my wife out of herebefore she gets broody?“Prince Williamjoked about Kate.
It seems William was right to worry — before the end of their visit, Kate was holding 10-month-old Saul in her lap as they looked through a book.
