BlogAfrica has a ten question news quiz on Africa in 2005. Fortunately, they're much easier graders than I am: 60% is a passing score -- and I just squeaked in.
I got a 60% also. I deserved less than that since two of my correct answers were just guesses.
Still, I wonder how well most people would fare on a similarly difficult test about other geographical areas (even the U.S.).
