Take these quizzes to prove you know stuff!
Several online quizzes have caught my eye recently:
- The BBC English Quiz (found via chrisdellavedova.com) I kicked ass on this one - surprisingly, even on the spelling section.
- The German Citizenship Test (in German). Could you become a German? (found via AmiExpat)... really? You want me to know the flag colors of Nordrhein-Westfalen to become a German citizen? I don't even know what colors are on New York's state flag... at any rate, with 24 out of 33, I passed! Woo hoo! Where's my passport?
- The Sueddeutsche Zeitung's US Presidential Candidate Quiz (in German). Example question:
What is Barack Obama's middle name?Someone must have been thinking about the Hezbollah fist bump while writing that one (at the end of the video, but well worth the entertaining wait)...
a) Saddam
b) Hussein
c) Mahmud

20 out of 20 on English test. Glad to know the English Literature major at a private college wasn't a complete waste of time!
Didn't even attempt the other two...
Come on now, you know you want to take the others...
Thanks for the link AND the Jon Stewart video!
You're welcome, Chris. It's always a good time for a Jon Stewart clip! :)
We just took the German test with 2German born and raised citizens (36 and 68 years old). WOW, remind me never to do that again. That was an hour long debate and nobody appreciated my German dictation of the questions. Question 8 and 21 took 20 minutes alone!! LOL Crazy Germans! BTW, I would have NEVER passed on my own.
