I got that one wrong. Hard to believe the US imports more airplanes and less steel.

Its the other way around. They export more airplanes than they import. They import more steel than they export

But Massachusetts doesn't border Canada. Alaska, New York and Montana does. I don't get the question (5).

That's the point.. the quiz is about finding the one that isn't what the question asks. I did what you did at first, don't worry.

It's always amusing when someone responds with this to one particular question on quizzes like this, because what about all the other questions?? Do you just believe all the other fake answers?

Wow I was expecting to bomb that, and ended up getting 13/15. Maybe I knew more than I know.

I got the amazing low score of 0 (points. 5 correct answers) and no I did not do that on purpose. There aren't that many quizzes left I haven't taken yet, so I am getting more into the territory of no idea but I will take the quiz anyway territory. Luckily not forced to do nfl quizzes just yet ;). (Because I woukd recognise nothing there, here I atleast recognised the states and many of the city names)

And still plenty of reset quizzes to get back to.
