Opinion: I am above average

September 30, 2007 in William Dennis

I took the Civic Literacy Quiz and got 48 out of 60 correct, or 80 percent. Thanks above the average of 73.9 percent.

    Dang, I only got 50 questions right.

    A liberal should be smart enough to do better! :)

    60 out of 60, but I guessed right on one of them.

    52 of 60, and I would’ve had a few more right if I went for my first gut instinct. Missed Monroe Doctrine - sheesh!

    I almost went for “Hadrian’s Wall” for the subject of Reagan’s quote, I was laughing so hard at the choices.

    Anything that might have involved Plato kicked my @ss.

    Not too bad, but not as good as I had hoped.

    57 out of 60= 95%…I rushed myself over a lunch hour….Good test…a real “Fair and Balanced” evaluation…….Wonder how our ditto head friends would test????

  8. Super J Says:

    44/60 and I’m just fine with that.

    57 out of 60. The conservative proselytizing underlying many of the questions got a bit annoying. I also thought there was a heavy emphasis on the rote memorization of facts. I suppose it is difficult to test a person’s understanding of the meaning underlying these events in a multiple choice format.

    It should have been socialist proselytizing, damn it!! LOL

    Wow. So ANYTHING not “conservative” is now “socialist”? What open-mindedness.
