Gettu betur (English: Make a better guess) is a top-rated annual Icelandic quiz show, broadcast by Sjónvarpið. The contestants are three in each team, students from Iceland's gymnasiums. There are five rounds of knock-out, the first two are broadcast on radio and then the quarterfinals, semi-finals and finals on television. Around 30 schools participate every year.

Gettu betur was first held in 1986. Menntaskólinn í Reykjavík has won the contest 12 times overall, first in 1988 and then 11 times in a row, from 1993-2003, both years included. Seven other schools have won the contest.
