The Gratest Ginerashun
Here's a civics test receiving attention because the average grade for college students is about 52%. That's failing, by the way. Even Harvard students only averaged 69%. Too busy making papier-mache heads to study, I reckon.
Seemed pretty easy to me. I scored 57 of 60. The 3 I missed were all economics questions near the end. Which would explain why my checkbook looks like runic scribblings in base 7. With lots of negative signs, and crude drawings of speared antelope in the corners.
Same here. 57/60, though I got different questions wrong.

No need to thank my generation for their contribution...other than quality television programming such as Jackass, we haven't made one.

I blame the colander.

Posted by: Key at September 20, 2007 9:47 PM53 right. Shoulda been 54. I misread one question. I can't believe I voluntarily took a goddamned quiz at this hour.
Posted by: Jim - PRS at September 20, 2007 9:47 PMI scored 83.33%, but one should keep in mind that I'm Canadian. And dangerously drunk most of the time.
Oh, and I own 12 books on how O.J Simpson killed two folks, so watch it with the smart ass remarks, capise?
Posted by: skippystalin at September 20, 2007 10:36 PM80%, then again I am one hell of a guesser.
Posted by: james old guy at September 21, 2007 1:30 PM86% -- missed a couple of stupid ones that I didn't read right but prolly balanced by lucky guesses on others. Paid a tad bit more attention in intro to econ in college as I was trying to tutor half of the football team who had to get through it to graduate -- but basically I'm clueless when it comes to that gobbledygook! AND that was a loooooong time ago -- God bless Mr Boedecker for the daily floggings in History & Civics -- I'm still planning a campaign to write him in for President if you're not going to run again this election, V-dude!
Posted by: Marianne at September 22, 2007 10:56 PMI missed many, putting me in line with the wastrels of Generation P. I did, however, get 100% on the Atlas Shrugged people quiz.
