^ Sadly we joke about that but if you ask any US high schooler I guarantee, if lucky, ONE would correctly identify the location of Banff.

You're still in high school?

I see the meticulous labeling of all states/provinces, yet they didn't want to bother figuring out Vermont/New Hampshire which was which.

LOL...I wish...

You could even argue the other 48 states and not figuring out which is which.

This is a telling example how little students in the US focus on items like Geography (note you can argue Civics and History in the same manner):

LOL I didn't even see the choice blocks above the map. Do I get extra credit for getting 5 of 6 of them right except I thought Mumbai was New Delhi?

That is what makes the 26% correct even worse. They only needed a general sense of where cities were on a map. Your mistake could easily happen if it was blind guess and the map lacking specific pinpoint locations.

think I posted this one in the music thread recently.

Went to a party, I danced all night

But now I am jaded, you're out of luck
I'm rolling down the stairs Too drunk to fuck
