I read the news today; oh boy; and it said that half of
college students couldn't name the states or place them in the right location
on a blank map of the US. I wasn’t surprised and decided to show off my
superior skills at geography. I have; after all; been around the world a few
times, so this should be a snap. Wrong.
The best way to take this test is not the way I did; which
was to fill in the blanks. You’d be better served if you listed the states in
alphabetical order first; and counted them to make sure you didn’t miss one or
two; then match the names to the locations on the map. I wish I had.
Check this out and see how you do. I did better than the
college crowd; scoring a whopping 78% or so. I got 11 wrong! I’m embarrassed; I’m
ashamed. I wish I’d made that list first.
