96%. Blew this question:

In which of the following predominately Muslim countries are there more Shia Muslims than Sunni Muslims?

You answered "Saudi Arabia"

The correct answer is "Iran"

This quiz dramatically illustrates the dumbing down of America.

Quizzes can be misleading. Reliability & validity are 2 basic factors that must be taken into account, apart from the actual qualitative & quantitative sample, quizzed.

Missed one....didn’t get the “poverty” number right, should have known that one. The rest was laughably simple. Found it interesting that the high point on the bell curve was 3 questions right. I’m sure the people representing the bulge in that curve would be plenty happy to call me ignorant, and stupid, and many other nasty names though.

I answered 10 out of the 12 questions correctly - 92% (missed on percent of unemployment - I answered 9%, correct 6%; and percent of population of US below poverty level - I answered 25%, correct 15%), which puts me in the company of 4% of those who answered PEW questions!

What is the national unemployment rate as reported by the government currently closer to?

96%. Missed "What is the national unemployment rate as reported by the government currently closer to?"

There was no 22%. 6%? That is not current news knowledge.

Surprise, surprise, I got wrong answers on those questions most in doubt because they rely on gubmint info:
Minimum wage
Poverty level
Government spending
Unemployment rate

All things I do not trust or believe anything Obunga's regime says about it.

12 of 12 of their leading questions.

What is the national unemployment rate as reported by the government currently closer to?

That will stump those who actually know the REAL numbers are much higher...

I answered “did you see Michelle Obamas new dress” for everyone of them

[SoFloFreeper]

I take these Pew things occasionally, generally score well.

On this one I got all 12 right. :)

[octex]

I answered all 12 correctly.

Found the summary interesting, as it showed male, college grads 50 or older answered 10 of 12 at a higher rate than other demos. The two questions where other demos did better were the minimum wage and social security ones.
