I got an 88, but I'm pretty sure a couple of their "correct answers" are wrong.

Oooh, that was a toughie. I got a score of 75% - but given that I'm really, really shaky on Constitutional history and don't know squat about economics, I don't think I did all that badly. :)

heh. 38/60-- 63.33%. I am *very bad* at these subjects. It doesn't help that I really only saw them in high school.

Fun! 81%--much better than I expected as a fair-to-middling student of history who hasn't actively studied civics since high school. Still, going through those questions mostly reminds me of how much I've forgotten.

56 out of 60.

Go AP US history! Other than some of the philosophy issues that I picked up in college, I think all of those answers came from that one class in High school...

Actually, that's not entirely true. That course in constitutional law at Stanford probably was a value add for several others as well, even if about half of it was reinforcement.
