I got 25 right. Not good enough.

Some of those questions could cause HOURS of debate.

I should study economics more.

I only missed one. I didn't think it was all that difficult.

Scored 31 of 33. One of the ones I missed I should have gotten, the other was one I'm not too upset about missing.

I got 30 out of 33, but one of them was a really embarrassing mistake on a history question.

I think I know which one you are talking about. I decided to go with what I thought they wanted me to answer, versus what I feel is the right answer.

Still kicking myself over the one easy one I missed.

1 wrong, and that was probably caused by rushing to get done. Some questions were poorly worded, and I can see well informed people getting a few wrong.

Thank you. As a pretty well informed person I'm using the "rushing" and "poorly worded" as my reasons for not doing better on this.
