I got 90 %. Never heard of the "Four Corners"... And the other one was the question about the length of the term of the U.S. representatives.

A rather strong cultural bias in this test, don't you think? I'd never even heard of "Four Corners" before but I actually figured out what it means, I think... at least I answered correctly.

Anyways, I got 75%. Embarassingly, three out of the five questions I missed were such that I should have known the answer.

Shoot...I got 70% but like you said man..I should've remembered some of the stuff. Plus...I came to the US in 6th grade...so I don't know what they taught in the 5th here in the US..LOL
