Test your American Knowledge
« on: March 01, 2016, 01:05:01 PM »
I'm afraid to admit, I was only 21 for 25. Try it out and test your knowledge.  http://www.billoreilly.com/quiz?categoryID=4&quizID=757

I got 20 / 25 which I thought not too bad since I'm not American and I went to school back when American history was not taught in Canadian Schools.

25 out of 25 but I did guess on one or two.

Mlappin, you are exactly correct about how our younger generations would do on a test like this which is a direct result of not teaching what our nation was founded on and who made the sacrifices for us.

24/25 My high school US Government and US History teachers would have been appalled if 15/25 would have passed. O'rielly not asking for much.

25/25 If it's math or history I'm good to go. Just glad I didn't have to spell my answers! Spellcheck is a wonderful thing!

Better to come up with your own list of 25 things everyone should know...probably different than that list!
