Give it a try, you don't need to report your results. It's just interesting to see the level of the questions and the fact that overall Americans miss half of them.

5 of 6. Not bad but really dumb questions.

Yes that's the point, fairly straightforward questions and the average grade across the country is 50%.

Aced it. Taking a look at how folks did in different states, from my glance it appears those in Texas and Florida did the worse, chart below shows them missing the most. Although it disappoints me that it's based on 2015 results.

On the other hand, Montana kicked butt.

Thats what I got, but I answered very quickly.

5 out of 6, and not sure how I missed the bond question since I know better. Got in a hurry I guess.

I think the bond question is programmed wrong. I marked the right answer and it said I marked another

How many people in this country typically own bonds? Throw out that question and all you have proven is the average American sucks at math, which is a given!

[Shrimpbox]

I think the program may be wrong. I also answered the bond question incorrectly but I marked the right answer

Didn't know the answer to the bond question. If I had guessed I might have gotten it right.

5.

Sure like to see the scores of some others in here. Those that fretted about ‘how long’ it would take for Amazon to ‘pay back’ the $3B last week might be a fun group to start with.

You can suck at math and still get these questions right. It's about understanding how money and interest rates work.
