Can you pass this quiz?
So, you think you know your American history, eh? When a group called the Intercollegiate Studies Institute asked a series of 33 questions on that topic to a selection of people, more than the 71% of Americans failed (got 59% or less correct). I just took the test online and got a decent score – 81% – but I think I should have done better. A few of the questions are poorly worded, IMO, but the majority should be painfully easy to get right. At least in my ideal America, that is.
Take the quiz yourself and find out how much you know about American civics and related topics. Don’t cheat and look up the answers online as you go through the quiz! You get your score after you hit submit at the bottom of the page.
Do you know who this is?
Also, post your results in the comments here, if you don’t mind.
