That tiny little Rhode Island messed me up.

I got 100% 0 miles off, but it took 300 seconds. Once you get a few in the middle it is easy from there.

Place the state quiz--what's your score?-victory.jpg

Cool, I got 100% in 347 seconds...was kind of slow going through some of the central states. The version with Mexican states looks to be a little harder though.

92%, off by 15 miles.

Iowa really messed me up in the beginning. It was just hard to place its exact location without a real reference point.

96 percent, five miles. Wyoming was my first one. Not too surprising that I was slightly off with that one. No coastline or national boundaries to provide an outline.

Yep, I'm not surprised about RI, Southernnature. I had trouble with a couple of the smaller states because I put the pointer on the spot I had to see in order to line up the distinctive points on the coastline. Somehow I actually put RI in the right spot exactly. Lucky, I guess, because the pointer covered almost the entire image, so it was hard to see exactly how to line it up.
