*Lulu* Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Interesting indeed. I didn't miss any that were about the language used in the constitution and founding documents. Two of the questions I missed I *knew* but second guessed myself. There was a clear bias in some of the choices and it made me more careful in thinking them through. (Or, in my case, overthinking them.) Overall, that was a great way to brush the cobwebs off part of my collection of stuff I know. (And I think I snorted when I read the names of Jerry Falwell, Pat Robinson, and Adolf Hitler attached to the same question!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrookValley. Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I can't resist a quiz. I got the one about the colonies wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mnemosyne Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 18/21, but rushed my way through. Missed 8-10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking Squirrels Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 How embarrassing. I only got 12 right. I got all the ones about language of the constitution and such right. But I missed most of the dates, people, and places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlmiraGulch Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 17/21, but I knew 2 of the ones I missed. One I fat-fingered,and one I just second guessed myself on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Lulu* Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Hah! I was heavily medicated last night when I took it, so I went back and redid it this morning. Perfect score. Although I think I remembered the answer about the colonies from last night. And the one about the presidents being Christians. Which, on an unrelated note, is awesome because it means the medication isnotmessing with my memory as much as DH and I feared! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Elf Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 It's a wonder I've managed to homeschool my children with how much I don't know about government. Hopefully their high school class will enlighten them. I didn't take Government in high school and I made barely a passing grade in college. I'm ashamed but it's just all so complicated to me!

MistiDelaney Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I am right in there with the WTM average. 18 or 21. I missed 8, 10, and 13. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alice Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 19/21 but I think some of the answers were somewhat obvious even if you didn't know them. I guessed at many of them based on the wording and whose website it was. It was clear to me that they wanted to "shock" people who think that America is a "Christian nation". (Given that the scoring code says that "you may be a member of the Religious Right" if you got 0 correct I think that's fair.) As a pretty good test-taker but someone who is shamefully ignorant of government and civics, it seemed obvious to me the answer was the later dates because that seemed to not be obvious and to fit with the "let's shock the ignorant religious people" slant or Adolf Hitler for the same reason.

Kathryn Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I got 18, but I took it in the middle of a sleepless night with an infant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
