You answered 95% of questions correctly.

What can I say? History was one of my favorite subjects in school and I took Government twice in highschool. I guess I obsorbed some of it the second go around.

I've also watched hours and hours of TV trivia.

I got 65%. I like history, but I don't watch any tv....that must be it.

**Osiris** · 07-07-2008, 01:38 PM

wonder if made it easier, i couldnt answer alot of original one that i saw

**Osiris** · 07-07-2008, 01:41 PM

heck no, man why dont they ask like "what color was iron man's suit in the marvel movie?" "is jessica alba blonde or brunette" actual freakin american questions!

**lohachata** · 07-07-2008, 01:47 PM

i rarely watch tv..i rarely ever read the newspaper..didn't even come close to finishing high school..and most certainly not the sharpest tool on the shed..
but somehow by some huge mistake i actually scored a 65%...

Buggy · 07-07-2008, 03:27 PM

I got 75% so I guess I'm ok. I missed #'s 7, 13, 14,16,and 20. Number 20 was a dumb mistake on my part, I knew the answer but misread the question. lol

**Scuba Kid** · 07-07-2008, 05:19 PM

Eh, 85%. Not bad. a couple of them were stupid mistakes though, and i did know the right answer. lol

**JustOneMore20** · 07-07-2008, 07:41 PM

70%...haha. I slept through atleast 1 history class in high school and didn't retain anything from my college history class, so it doesn't surprise me. History is one of my least favorite subjects.

You answered 80% of questions correctly. Here's your rating:

i looove history too so i guess thats why i got what i got.

GoodMike · 07-08-2008, 02:43 AM

100 percent, piece of cake

tenaj-6 · 07-08-2008, 04:52 AM

lol i got 20%. But im not american.

**TheOldSalt** · 07-08-2008, 07:03 AM

95%

I didn't know who the current chief justice is. Bummer.

I agree with Osiris, too; they should include a bunch of questions that no spy can just learn in spy school before coming to this land, such as some more current event stuff, some political questions, and of course a bunch of trivia bits straight out of the supermarket tabloids and tv shows.

I forgot who Susan B. Anthony was (women's rights... whatever) and I forgot the beginning of the constitution.

Ron the handyman · 07-08-2008, 04:58 PM

I missed three, getting an 85% COOL!!

sneasle · 07-08-2008, 07:27 PM

85%.

I've never much cared for how our citizenship tests are written, but it's not up to me to decide.

**SueM** · 07-09-2008, 02:01 AM

Its a small range of questions, that makes them study EVERYTHING.
