[Ian David]

6. Hey, stop screwing up the curve for the rest of us!

:P

[hobbit709]

7. Even my drug-addled mind can still pass the test.

NAh, nah! :rofl:

[Ian David]

8. Well, I passed. Probably did better than Bush would have, too.

Yeah, I set the bar low for myself, I know.

[KoKo]

2. Site seems so busy that it can't take anymore people right now...check it out later...

It's an "interesting test" and I doubt many of us could have passed it in High School.

It's worth it to take it to see what you think...but it's in "Denial of Service" at this point until the site calms down.

[KoKo]

3. It's an "Internet HOT SITE" right now. If you are one of many DU Insomniac's check back later....

or go at it when you are FRESH tomorrow Morning. As I said, it's a tough test and will "drain your brain" so you want to be "fresh," when you take it.

Just "Bookmark" it for tomorrow.

4. I think I did worst on the financial theory stuff.

I don't know if I should be embarassed or not.

I'm ashamed to admit. Guess I've been out of school too long and don't remember a lot of what I supposedly learned.

Good test.

Not too bad, considering that I've never taken an economics class and hated history in school. :P

[burrowowl]

HOWEVER
Government is what I teach so...

[applegrove]

25. You answered 41 out of 60 correctly — 68.33 % - but I'm Canadian

and have never taken American History so I am okay with that.

[CreekDog]

26. I do not have time for this now!

Beaver made a voodoo doll like Eddie Haskell and Eddie actually got sick and then Beaver was worried that the curse worked and now Eddie is worried that it is working also...

[Evergreen Emerald]

27. I got 87%

That was tough!

[KoKo]

28. kick...

[NastyRiffraff]

29. I scored 76.67%

The history and most of the government questions were fairly easy for me. I've always been a history and civics buff. I screwed up on the economics stuff. And most of the philosophers. Interesting test. Thanks for posting it!

[KoKo]

30. kick.......
