Geography peeps

This came across my FB feed today.

I got 100%






What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 

Re: Geography peeps

  • i got 85% but I got the last one wrong cus clicky issues and im blind after studying for histo and battling sleep


  • ...I got a 78%.....

    Country outlines can be hard, especially if you're used to seeing them in conjunction with other outlines! 

    That said, I really shouldn't have fucked up Brazil and India like I did.....

  • I missed two.. But turkey wasn't curved like it usually is on the globe.. Haha. And Poland was too similar to Germany in my mind.

  • Turkey was the only one I really had to think about.

  • 96%. Fucking Turkey.
  • Turkey killed me too, but it reset before I got my score, so I had to redo it.  Bam 100% that time.  

  • Gahhhhhh, 78%! I missed Turkey, Germany, and Thailand. 
  • I'm in idiot. I am a travel lover who has a globe/map tattoo and a 6 foot map of the world on her dining room wall...and I got 57%. I'm so ashamed!!!!!!!

  • Ugh, I didn't even bother trying after Turkey.  I'm great at states, continents, major geographical features of North America, and a tiny bit of Europe...pretty much if it isn't taught at the elementary school level, I don't know it!

  • I couldn't decide Japan or New Zealand? Guessed wrong.

                       
  • Things that are not strengths of mine:

    …parallel parking
    …chess
    …geography

    I won't even say what my score was, but I will admit I even missed Denmark…even with a Dad who is 100% Danish…and a maiden name that is the same as a city in Denmark. Oops.

  • I missed Turkey and Denmark. Two countries that I don't know much about.
  • I am 32 but still use the excuse that I moved around a lot as a child and never took a geography class due to it being taught at differing grade levels across states I lived in. And I, uh, clearly never taught myself.
  • Yeah, I did bad on that one.

    Here is another site that had all kinds of geography tests.

  • @lc07 I swear that happened to me with Roman Numerals! I switched schools mid year in 4th grade just as mine was starting them and the new school had already done them so I never learned those.
