Thought a change of scenery for the time being would do you all good:

I know we all know most of the answers, but we can still learn from this.

i guess i gotta find somewhere else. sorry if i havent memorized what amendment does what or when it was passed. 4 of the ones i got wrong were "what amendment does this" "how many are there" "which one is a current amendment" "how many have failed to pass" and i forgot who has 2 year terms and who has 6 year terms. other than that and not knowing who was born in texas (i thought george was born in conn. but didnt know who else it would be) that and not knowing the official language. other than that im a model citizen. but seriously, who memorizes the amendments like that if you dont have a test the next day?

27 out of 30, with no cheating.

I can live with 26/30.

28/30...guess I did learn something last year in high school government!

23/30. I'm happy with that.

I got the following ones wrong:

How many years is a full term for a Representative?
Which amendment sets the minimum voting age to 18?
Which of these amendments is a ratified and current amendment?
In what year was the last amendment ratified?
Who was the first Vice President of the United States?
Who said "Give me liberty or give me death?"
Which of these Presidents was born in Texas?

my tuition should be reimbursed. As a fifth year poli.sci. major I feel that the university has let me down. If I'm paying this much for school, they could at least send someone to wake me up for class. Stingy suits. I got 23.

23/30. Some of those were tricky.

25/30... I need to know ammendments better apparently.

The amendments were my downfall... 25/30... I suppose that's good enough to stick around, eh?
