I got this in an email.

Supposedly 96% of all High School Seniors FAILED this test....
AND if that's not bad enough, 50+% of all individuals over 50 did too!!

Take the test and be surprised at what we don't or do know. Click below:

I got a 27. Not bad I guess.

[BigBear]

YEEHAW!!! 29! I missed the last ademendment ratified one... Thought it was gender with all the homo/gay crap going on. 29/30 ain't too bad for a public school boy.

[Troublco]

I got a 27 as well. Some of those were pretty basic (I thought) but some were not things that I would expect to see very often. Very interesting. Of course, one of the ones I blew I really thought I knew.

[sniper7]

24 here....and that is without any googling. some of you know you did it!!!

[Batteriesnare]

and that is without any googling. some of you know you did it!!!

Nope, not here. Although I have the excuse of more recent schooling.

[iamhunter]

30/30

Just recently completed an American History course.... so, yah.

But regardless, I never understood why knowing in WHAT year the last amendment was ratified. Wouldn't it be more important to know WHAT AMENDMENT was ratified? haha.

some of the questions seemed rather pointless in determining "intelligence"

but regardless, that's how school worked, and consequently it's all stuck in my brain.

[Marlin]

Gee, I got 29 and I've been out of school longer than some of you have been alive...[Muaha]

[Mtn.man]

American History was the only class I could get an A in.. Always had an interest in it.. Heck,, I could ditch half the class and still get an A [Tooth]

[Marlin]

How many Presidents were assassinated while in office?

Lincoln,, Garfield, McKinley, and Kennedy..

[pickenup]

I didn't do worth a crap in American History (or in most other classes) when I was in school. Never paid attention, I had MUCH more important things on my mind.....like GIRLS. [Love2]

But I have learned some things over the last few years, via the internet. Being the moderator of a "Gun Rights and Constitutional Law" forum, has sure helped.

[Dalendenver]

Age and failing memory are catching up with me. Two graduate degrees and only got 24. All the first 20 were right.

[jerrymrc]

24 as well.
