Some of the questions are really easy, some are medium, and some are very difficult.
There's a good mix of politics, history, culture, sports, and questions about demographics and crime statistics. I managed to score 26 out of 33, for an average of 79%....which I am arbitrarily rounding up to 80%.
I did better on the questions about politics, history, and culture than I did with the ones about sports and crime statistics.
The test takes about 10 minutes, depending on how fast you go, of course. After each response, you are shown if your answer was correct, and if it wasn't, the correct answer is highlighted. There is a running total of how you're doing, too.
Some of the answers were very surprising to me, but I don't want to say which ones because I don't want to give away any of the correct responses, so you'll have to go and see for yourself!
Update: The CSM has a 20-item quiz about Latin American geography, too. This is a lot easier than the Brazil quiz: I got 19 out of 20 right, and some are very easy, even for geographically-challenged North Americans.
I just saw this too! I started taking it but quit half-way through. I got one wrong at that point. Maybe I'll take it again later. ;)
ReplyDeleteYou quit after you missed one?? That's no fair! Take the Latin American geography quiz first, you'll probably get all 20 of them right, then try Brazil again.....and report your score ;-)
DeleteI got an 85% on the Brazilian and 100% on the South America!!

Parabéns, Alex! But you weren't supposed to do better than me!! :-)
DeleteGot 79, er 80% right, too. I lived there for 2 1/2 years. You?
ReplyDeleteNice job, CB! I've never been, but hope to go someday.
