I failed. I only got 35 out of 48 before the time ran out.


(*Click on name of state, then drag to where it belongs on the map, and drop.  You are being timed, so hurry!)

I didn't do too good neither 29/48. I guess I spent too much time looking for the 49th & 50th states.   :-/

Well, I knew more than I got. It's just that I could click on the big states but when it got to the little New England states I couldn't get the arrow fine tuned enough. I kept missing. ::)

I got 41 out of 48. Couldn't get RI to line up and a few of the New England states gave me a hard time.

WHEW that was a close one. Thought I'd have to send my teaching certificate back to CrackerJack. 8)  I have to agree with you Jeff, invalid.

Seems that the grading system is a little harsh.  Says I failed since I only got 48/48.  I wonder what it takes to pass. :o

Ron, I think you got bleeped too many times to pass. That happened to me also the first time through. They sent the short bus to pick me up and I did some studyin' and was able to pass on my second try.

N.E. states are not a problem for people who were born in N.E. My problem area was all those identical-looking square states in the mid-west and northwest.
