I got 24..amendments ones mostly, wrong.

If you took a look at the scores by age..these young kids do very poorly with this.

I think those of us schooled in the 50s and 60s, come out way ahead in this.

Missed one—number of unratified amendments.

26 — similar complaint on the darned amendments. On the plus side, at age 67, I approached this as an Altzheimers test and figure I passed.

27 of 30. Missed three of the amendment questions, some of which were pretty obscure and of debatable importance.

I got 29 out of 30 right. I missed the one about the number of unratified amendments.

Fear Not! Look, we are just simple taxpaying folks who did not get a change to review the subject ahead of time.

The fact that all of the ones taking the test so far did well proves that once you knew the subject cold and now with the passage of time you needed the choices to help get the answer.

Remember, there is difference between:

Once I knew the answer to that question without help( entitles me to be a responsible member of a civilized society and a FREEPERS)

WTF!!I never knew that subject and never cared anyway(entitles me to get free stuff from FREEPERS)

Life is grand!

27 out of 30. Not bad. All three missed were on more obscure amendment questions.

Same here.

28/30

How many amendments and when was the last ratified were the two that got me.

We don’t use the Constitution any longer... so I guess I should get a pass.

Welcome to the club. Exact same result on amendments and language. But I do feel proud.

English should be the "official language" and who cares that Eisenhower was born in Texas. As far as the amendments ... my bad. LOL

I had to do that one by the process of elimination. I knew the others weren’t born in Texas, so assumed it had to be Eisenhower.

I live in Fort Worth so that one was easy. Dennison is just a couple of hours away.
