Directions: Try THIS, and then read below.
Ever since I started working, I've been a little self-conscious of my geography skills. Fellow co-workers talk about crazy countries that I didn't even know existed, what beaches in Turkey are the nicest, why Brussels {is that a country? or a city?} is an "easy" place to live, etc...
And I smile {it's what I do best} politely. Until I can google what the heck they're talking about.
Then my grandmother sent me this above link. And lowered my confidence another couple of points.
I guess before I attempt to conquer the world {in terms of geography, that is}, I first need to start on common ground...I scored a whopping 82% on this "Know Your States" quiz...pretty low for living in the same country my entire life.
New England States...a total blur.
I swear, Tennessee was to the right of Kentucky last time I referenced a map. Aren't they both in the "deep south" ;)
Where am I? I'm not exactly sure, but please come visit if you can find me.
So, how do you compare? Are you smarter than a 5th grader? Could you pass elementary school Geography?!

haha well you did better than me! I got a 78%! You know all the states in the West...me, NO IDEA where the heck colorado or utah go!
I haven't tried it yet (good thing...otherwise I'd feel obligated to share my score). But I will say that the states and capitals was the only test I've ever failed in my entire life. Fourth grade, Mrs. French's class. So if I get over a 50% I'll be happy!!!
Uhhh I did horrible as well. I got about the first 6 wrong and then Jesse took over and totally kicked my butt. I'm like Krista...NO CLUE about the states in the West, or the New England area for that matter!
