Very Smart

You scored 88% knowledge, and 6% confusion

You are very smart. You know a lot of details about the world. You have probably traveled a bit and were paying attention along the way. Also, you didn't choose any (or many) seriously incorrect answers. Great job on that part. Don't forget to vote on this test!



My test tracked 2 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 99% on knowledge

You scored higher than 99% on confusion

Somehow, I'm not surprised by your score. :)

What I am surprised by, is that they misspelled Colombia. There is no 'u' in Colombia.

I think that they also misused Malaka which is apparently Greek for "wanker" as opposed to the Strait of Melacca, which is the new Caribbean. Though, I can't recall if Malaka is some odd indigenous spelling.

Someone should also inform the creators that the hard questions would be harder if they weren't accompanied by some patently ridiculous answer choices. Like, say, pretending that Germany and Burma actually share a border.

Those spellings don't seem to stick. I don't remember what version of Melaka or Malacca, Malaysia we used at my old company when I went there (btw, I have "Strait of Malacca" on my not so great atlas). Maybe it's one of those English vs. Bahasa Malaysia problems... "Malaka" is pretty rare from what I can tell, though!

Shhh, don't tell people the (preposterous) answers!! :)
