I'm sure you'll score well in World Geography and USA, but try individual continents.

I feel so dumb, or rather, educated.

Asia: 48/84

I aced Canada, of course, but I also aced the United States. Any Americans want to try and do the same for my country? No cheating, remember.

I got a perfect score on South America and the oceans, but that's about it. @_@

I didn't do bad on the United States and Canada (38/39 on Canada, 146/150 on United States), but pretty much everything past that... eeh.

Not going to even try. My last class that dealt with geography was about six years ago. Put me down for 0/all of 'em.

i think that the major problem is that nobody likes new jersey (or they do, and they are weird). they don't call it the armpit of america for no reason...

I see New Jersey every day. It's hard to miss when Salem Nuclear Power Plant is less than 10 miles to the east of you http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Thanks, New Jersey.

Don't worry, more than 85% of America, including citizens of all ages do worse than you. The nation would consider you in great shape for whoever you are. And you also have to factor in age and education (not that any American ever cared for it, as it was a means to a job, and that only).

Besides, most of dumb America (you too Oprah, for watching Bachelor) don't know this.

There was a kid in my class that didn't know there was a Washington state.

Still, though... 85%?

Thats funny.

P.S The states I didnt get were New Jersey,Vermont etc..., all east coast states, since I live on the west coast and its hard to learn all the east coast states, therefor I dont know them all. I didnt even know Vermont existed until I took the quiz.

that's sad that the only way you can feel confident about your geography skills is someone grading you... is the world only numbers to you people? with the vast information in books and the internet, why should you have to remember this garbage, unless you are going to use it everyday... if you want to know, look it up! you should at least know that the country/state exists, and an approximate area... maybe something about the country... that's enough for me...
