Test your knowledge...

[Granny]

Are you more knowledgeable than the average citizen? The average score for all 2,508 Americans taking the following test was 49%; college educators scored 55%. Can you do better? Questions were drawn from past ISI surveys, as well as other nationally recognized exams.

 

The following questions were taken from the 2008 Civic Literacy exam.

Well, that was interesting ... I made an 84.85%, not great, but better than the monthly average. There were a couple I was surprised I got wrong. The other three, not so much!!! lol

 

Thanks for posting!!

I agree, I don't think a couple I missed were wrong. I must look around a bit to see.

(And I hit the wrong button on one of them. ) You answered 24 out of 33 correctly — 72.73 %

Well I did 75.76% so not quite as good as the monthly average of 76.7% definitely better than I expected. Not too bad for someone who's been out of school for years and years wellll and years.

 

Thanks for posting this.
