15/20 - failed almost every one that involved people aside from founding father, who wrote the declaration and the current pres+vice pres. Im not too good at remembering dates and names, but damn I couldnt even remember who was Pres during either World War and thats probably pretty sad >__>

I got #2 wrong because I didn't fully read all the answers and thus didn't pick all of the above.

I got #8 wrong because I thought it was asking what's a right that the US has that other countries don't have and just kinda made a random guess. I think I would've picked the right answer otherwise.

I got #10 wrong because I never really learned presidents.

I got #14 wrong because I never really learned government.

I got #16 right only by picking the name I recognized the least. >_>

So 16/20. And then at the end I realized it's not preset questions so my numbering didn't really mean much oops.

The questions change every time. There's 100 questions it pulls from at random

I passed (15/20) but not by enough that I would on the actual test as it's not multiple choice. I'll worry about that when I apply for citizenship in a few years!

19/20

I answered 23 Amendments instead of 27 to the Constitution. I knew it was over 20, but couldn't recall specifically.

Many of my other questions weren't too hard at all, like Father of the Country, Longest Rivers, Ocean on the West Coast, Who leads the country after the Pres and Vice Pres, etc...

I got some question about the Federalist's Papers wrong.

Not standardized set of questions in any case (I didn't get the Senator one for instance) so comparing scores is kinda pointless.

I got 20/20.

Amusingly. one of the questions was inaccurate - if the President and VP are unable to exercise their duties, the Speaker of the House becomes Acting President, not President.

A few questions were also vague or potentially biased, just like you'd expect from the U.S. government.

I sweated over a couple...not because they were super difficult, but because I really didn't want to miss any.

I've seen other people mention questions I may have missed if I'd had them, but nobody is really listing what their options were so I can't be sure.

I almost missed this too, but the question is poorly worded imo.
