Bah. 8 out of 10, and no indication of which ones I missed.

I got 10 out of 10. But I really do not know as much detail about US history as someone that didn't do as well. The questions just fell into the area of the sketchy knowledge I have about those things. In other words I am saying I do not know as much as a 10 for 10 might imply. I've still got a lot of reading to do.

10 for 10. I thank my history teachers.

9 out of 10 and not a clue to which I got wrong. Since I guessed on about half of them... :-)

8, so let's eat. Cooked us up a traditional American dinner, turkey and all the fixins, that should count for extra credit.

I got 9 out of 10. I could not remember if the Constitution was written in 1786 or 1787 and must have guessed wrong.

I still maintain our enemies in WWII were "Germany, France & Italy".

C'est le guerre!

SOnja and I each got 10 out of 10 doing the test separately. But my question is this: How do public school-educated high school students do on the test??

9 out of 10 here. I'm wondering which one they got wrong.

Oh well, I aced it when it counted in 1966. Got the papers to prove it.

My daughter, who is a college freshman, took honors US history in 8th grade. (This was a public middle school.) On the first day of class, the teacher administered a citizenship test and to the kids' shock and horror, only 4 passed. (My daughter was one, I'm happy to say.) It got their attention. The parents were laughing about it at open house 5 weeks later - their kids came home saying, "I couldn't be a citizen!" I'll bet that by the end of the year all the kids would have passed that test.

I'll add that that teacher was a liberal Democrat but she wasn't necessarily what you would expect. The kids were given extra credit if they reported on Pres. Bush's inauguration; my daughter wrote a very positive report and got 10/10 points. And when they had to do a biography of a woman, she was allowed to do Fanny Crosby who was not on the list, and the teacher went through the list of Crosby hymns in front of the class - "Oh, I didn't know she wrote that!" and "That's one of my favorites!" and "We sing that it in my church all the time!" and so forth. So you just never know.

(I got 10/10 on that quiz.)

10 out of 10, but I sorta guessed on one of them and got lucky.

[Acidman]
