I got 16 the first time 16 the second and 18 the 3rd time (the questions are not always the same)

1. Test result:

You have an impressive understanding of the world for an American. It is likely that you feel intellectually isolated in your home country, and often have to hide your opinions from others. Deep down, you realise that your country is the single biggest threat to world peace in modern times, but you have not yet summoned up the courage to emigrate.

2. Damn...Pretty Good! n/t

3. Same result here...

...and I love the way they put it. :)

5. Second test result:

(I got 20 out of 20 correct.)

If you are American, the only way you got this score is by doing the quiz 50 times, and memorizing the correct answers. You need to approach the world in a less aggressively competitive way and learn to live with your inadequacies, rather than seeking to feel through bigotry and false national pride.

4. Not that bad..

18 out of the 20.

[Deja Q]

6. First try 13 out of 20. By large, missed the country/capitol questions...

To me, geography is a comparatively low point. But I knew who invented dynamite and it wasn't Jimmy Walker...

7. This test is pretty stupid.

I know a LOT of europeans dumber than me!

Interesting

11. 17/20 First time

Damn I could have gotten 18/20 but I flubbed the Hitler question which I knew!

[BlueJazz]

12. I purposely missed all but one and got this:

You know very little about the world, and less still about history. No wonder you are in no position to form intelligent opinions of your own about current affairs. You are an insular xenophobe who regurgitates bigotry and false pride. It is thanks to people like you that Americans are reviled and ridiculed throughout the world.

13. 18/20. Not bad, not bad. Eh? EH!?

This is the message I got, and they're actually right on . . . except for the emigration part. I've already started on that.

16. LOL, I went though the test 2 more times to get 20/20. Check it out:

17. You answered 3 questions correctly out of 20.

This is not a good score. Unless you are under the age of ten you should be ashamed of yourself.

18. 11

For an American, your knowledge of the world and its history is surprisingly good. About the same as the average school-age person in any other country. If you are at school, congratulations. If you are an adult, try harder. Read books, visit other countries, and watch less television. Learn to understand the world better and you could become an ambassador for your country, demonstrating that Americans are not all stupid.

Not so bad. But some of that stuff was silly trivia, I felt.

19. 18 out of 20 first time

Kinda funny...it told me that I feel intellectually isolated in my own country.
