I got 117 on my first try but I love geography, type fast, and spell well. This test is right up my alley.

I don’t understand in what way this shows how uncultured or out-of-touch I am with the world. I can’t name all the elements, but i understand the basic properties and interactions of the most significant ones.

Even still, asking people to pull all the names out of the recesses of their memory is an incredibly irrelevant and meaningless way to gauge some one’s familiarity with the world’s countries.

Fun but inconsequential.
