Civic Literacy Report – Civics Quiz
I like taking the tests on the internet that make me feel stupid (see what you do with this one), so a test on civics was right up my alley. At 81.8%, I scored better than 10 points above the November average, though fishing around in the findings, I learn that the average for the test is 49%. Ugly.

100 percent, baby. I think 49 percent is an embarrassingly low average, but some of the questions were pretty tough. I’d be happier if the country were getting, like, a C.
30/33, which is a 90.9%. My Fox-News-watching dad got a 31 though. Damn.
Alright, great. Apparently I’m the idiot.
~84%
The findings are very interesting, especially Finding 4.
