Guessed on three of them and was wrong. One of them I disagree with as I feel the phrasing of the question is poor. That would be the "taxes equals spending" question.

I face-palmed on two questions that I knew the answer too and can't believe I clicked the wrong one (one because I didn't read all the answer choices like an idiot). A few of the questions were somewhat biased and/or opinion based depending on your economic/international trade beliefs.

Otherwise, I find it sickening, after looking at the chart, how fuging retarded the general public is.

blanked on lincoln/douglas debate question

[Davidson Deac II]

29 of 33. I thought that Lincoln's of the people, for the people, by the people was borrowed from the declaration of independence. And I got the Dred Scott and the douglas lincoln debates mixed up.

Not sure what your point is, but exam scores don't necessarily indicate proficiency in one's chosen occupation. However, they are a decent indication of one's knowledge of civic history and trivia. :)

Same here on the second sentence. Also the Douglas-Lincoln debate I just couldn't quite remember the details but when I saw the answer I totally facepalmed my inability to remember 7th grade.

Misread "racial justice" - somehow read "radical justice" so that was one of my wrong answers.
