Not bad for a non-American I suppose.

67% average! Scary that Americans know so little about their own country. I'd hate to think what the average score would be if the quiz was actually about European or Asian history etc.

BB I hacked your answers you only got the greek question wrong!

Yuo are just being your modest self so as not to intimidate people

I think a quiz like this should be used to test voters ability to vote.

Where would you set the bar for Rep voters or Dem voters?

I would set the test score at 30 correct for Republicans and 3 correct for democrats. It would still disenfranchise most black voters [95% of whom vote democrat] but at least it will give them a chance....

57 out of 60!

I got the first 50 all correct, but the last 10 about economic issues I got 3 wrong! I am not suprised, I thought I would get more of the economic ones wrong! The history is easy for me, because I am a history major!
