The LA purchase question was an impossibility to get right the way they explained it. Surprised you even got one wrong. Well done. You can see why I recommended keeping your own score - I got 10%.RTEnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3776665703590564248.post-16779574306266178762021-07-03T19:44:03.176-04:002021-07-03T19:44:03.176-04:00Hi Doug - Took exam and I am proud to say I got a ...Hi Doug - Took exam and I am proud to say I got a 9%!!!!!!! I was informed that I should crack the books a bit to get my score up.<br /><br />Appears they can do history but not math. Also they have some glitches.<br /><br />I put in 50 stars and received an incorrect; Quiz said I chose 30. <br /><br />Question: which state was not part of the Louisiana Purchase? I chose Tennessee, came up incorrect and said the answer was the US purchased it from France for $15 million<br /><br />I put the first capital as Philly making the assumption that Philly was where the Continental Congress met and signed the Declaration. Quiz said,; incorrect, should be NYC so I figure they mean after the Peace treaty was signed and George was elected.<br /><br />Also noticed for the Civil War question they show a painting / sketch of Teddy Roosevelt apparently with the Rough Riders, which I thought was pretty funny.<br /><br />Legitimately I did get one incorrect, I said 25 Amendments instead of 27.<br /><br />Somehow I feel that means my score should have been better than 9%!! LOL!!<br /><br />Anyhow, wishing you and Carol a Happy 4th of July.DCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3776665703590564248.post-42104001770960613692021-06-28T23:18:00.749-04:002021-06-28T23:18:00.749-04:00APPRECIATE THE QUIZ.APPRECIATE THE QUIZ.JWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3776665703590564248.post-81033045691619074012021-06-27T19:49:42.419-04:002021-06-27T19:49:42.419-04:00The bonus is easy, Doug.

Starting top left its Grant, Hamilton, Franklin, JACKSON, Lincoln, Washington if that's what you meant...if you wanted to know what they all have in common the answer is they all appear on US paper currency.
