Feb 10, 2015

It really makes me mad when people say "100% and I'm not from America." GOOD FOR YOU! I'm sure that if I tried I could get 100% on any other country, and in fact, I have! Why do non-Americans feel that need to go around bragging that they know our country? Honestly, why does it matter so much? Americans aren't stupid, in case you didn't know. So get that stupid stereotype out of your head. Please, thanks.

No, we're not stupid. But our American educational system is broken. Sadly broken. If you asked the average person on the street to take this test it would be appalling.

It is brokeded from Mr. Teacher Person.

And by the way, I got all of them right. Not because of school, but because I pay attention. And I've been to all but a few of them.

They are proud for mastering a quiz that should be quite hard for most foreigners. Americans do that too and it's not a problem.

No, silly Potato... Liopleurodon meant that Charlotte is misplaced on the border between NC and SC. It's decidedly in the middle of NC. Quiz author should fix it!

Level 68

Feb 27, 2021

Isn't it near the border with SC?

Level 66

The city limits of Charlotte touch the border with SC

Too many cities! I'm fine with the edges but all those blobs around the Great Lakes mess with my head. My excuse is that I'm English but really I should know more than I do.

Level 79

I always get mixed up with Cleveland and Cinncinati. I got all the others, though (however, I am a ten year old from Denver, and I'm learning about US geography in school).

There are only six states with more than one city on the quiz, and several with zero (like my own), so don't feel too bad.

Was very happy with how smoothly everything started out, then it all fell to pieces in the Midwest!

Same. There's nothing distinguishable about St. Louis, Milwaukee and Minneapolis. Easy to mix those up

Level 61

Oct 28, 2016

I got all of them with 2:41, having only been to Pittsburgh, Philly, and Boston. For some reason I always thought that Cincinnati was in Indiana (but knew that Indianapolis certainly was) , but I guess not.

Level 41

Great Quiz! However, Minneapolis should be moved a bit south.

Level 57

Oct 24, 2017

This WaS pretty easy to me, NY errors were just careless like clicking Denver when I meant to hit Dallas. What is scary to me is my daughter who's in 7th grade and has gotten AS and BS HER WHOLE LIFE IN SCHOOL DID HORRIBLY. They don't teach things like I used to have to learn. Anything I had to memorize...multiplication tables ,states , capitols, she he never had to learn.

Level 64

Oct 25, 2017

When my daughter was in 7th grade, she had to make a poster glamorizing any president's famous program.

I told about a few including FDR's New Deal and LBJ's Great Society.

She worked on it for a couple of hours brought into my office and showed her wonderful poster which said

A NEW SOCIETY!

WHAT A GREAT DEAL!

Level 43

Well to be fair anything can easily be looked up on our phones nowadays so learning this kind of thing became less relevant. Understanding is more important than memorizing anyway.

As a native Nashvillian, y'all shouldn't miss us! Nashville is the capital of Tennessee, therefore, it's right in the middle! When you think Memphis think of the Mississippi River; it's all the way on the other side of the state :)

Level 63

Some people might not even know the state. "Memphis? You mean that city in Egypt?"

Only one i got wrong was Birmingham, and im Canadian.

Level 63

Dec 10, 2019

The place where you have Memphis is really Blytheville, AR or Dyersburg, TN. Memphis is right next to both AR and MS, but more of the suburbs are in MS. The metro area does sprawl a bit, mostly to the South and East due to the River and nice farmland in AR.

They should do this without state borders.

I'm really never sure where Nashville and Memphis are relative to each other. Their positions just won't stick in my head.

Alphabetical order, left to right.

As an Oklahoman, I am a little ticked at Oklahoma City being left off for cities like Boise or Omaha. Other than that nice and easy quiz.

Jun 24, 2021

Of course,the first city will be Quizmaster's home --- Seattle

Level 25

Aug 12, 2021

Got them all easy with 3:40 left, im surprised there's Omaha and Boise but not Baltimore, Jacksonville or Kansas City

Level 62

Nov 12, 2021

Memphis isn't quite in the right place, it should be in the southwestern corner of Tennessee.

Level 24

Nov 26, 2021

79% (not American). I missed Tampa, Charlotte, Birmingham, Memphis, Omaha, Milwaukee, and St. Louis. I didn't guess any wrong though. Not bad for first attempt at American Geography

Level 67

31/34. Not bad for an Aussie! I confused Pittsburgh and Philly.

Level 34

Where is Alaska and Hawaii? just asking

Level 80

Nov 18, 2022

Alaska is just west of Canada, across the Bering Strait from Russia, and Hawaii is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Level 49

Mar 16, 2024

There so many actually important cities missing. What's up with Boise and Birmingham but no Orlando, Salt Lake City, Honolulu, Sacramento, Reno, Kansas City, San Antonio, etc...

Level 49

Jun 20, 2024

probably because he wanted to space the cities out, he already had Tampa and Miami for Florida, i don't understand why he would put another one. Sacramento and Reno would be to close to other Cities in California.

Level 49

Aug 4, 2024

ye good point but that would also give it more of a challenge. I still find it weird that Boise and Birmingham are on here though

Level 48

Level 44

Dec 10, 2025

Cincinnati and Cleveland without Columbus?

Miami and Tampa without Jacksonville?

Level 63

Dec 11, 2025

Minneapolis, Memphis, and probably a couple others are misplaced.
