That's because FDR is accepted for Franklin Delano Roosevelt. It's faster than typing Roosevelt. Maybe accept "Teddy" as a type in for Theodore Roosevelt--that is how the teddy bear got its name, after all.

Level 85
Feb 21, 2022
Probably because Lyndon was popularly referred to as "LBJ" - which is a type-in for him. It's a similar situation for the Roosevelts - "FDR" is a type-in for Franklin.

Grover Cleveland served as both the 22nd and 24th presidents, so while there were 46 presidents, only 45 individual people were ever president

Wikipedia says Tyler started as a Democrat but switched to Whig due to his opposition to Andrew Jackson during the Nullification Crisis. Either way, he was nominated as William Henry Harrison's running mate from the Whig Party.

I think this quiz would benefit from using the yellow-box feature (so when you typed in 'roosevelt', only 1 entry would fill in).

Like this, https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/72360/us-presidents-in-chronological-order

But maybe this quiz is meant to be easier, since it's a badge quiz.

I enjoy taking it to practice, along with the chronological, and the picture quizzes.

When Johnson fills in, I get a ton of presidents for free (L J G H G A C H C M)

The years in this quiz are done just like the Oscars - the elections being held in the previous year to the actual handover. Makes it harder to remember.

I’m sure Biden won the 2020 election, but he only becomes president the next year.

I guess this is just standard for Jetpunk quizzes?
