How is the average only 39 for this? No wonder the rest of the world thinks Americans are morons
2010-05-30
Quizmaster
More likely is that people from other countries bring down the average. I definitely couldn't name many states in Mexico.
2010-05-30

Thats what it is. I'm from germany. i get em all right by know, but it took a little while
2010-06-09

That makes sense that people outside the US don't know the US states, or at least don't know how to spell them.

If you are an american, you should know them all. I got a 100% on the states test in the 4th grade. Seriously people, the average is 39...come on

2010-09-25
triviamomma
dcubed909 - You've never watched Jay Leno Street Walking - asking people simple questions... like what are the 3 branches of government or how many people are on the Supreme Court. Plus, maybe some people like me cant type fast. I know all the states, just couldn't type it the first time. Now I get all 50 typed in time.

This is more of a speed typing contest than anything.
2010-10-23
candman47
I have taken this quiz several times. I always try to do it differently, for example, starting in the northwest and moving southeast, etc. This time I tried to get them in alphabetical order, and it's the first time I didn't get them all. Only 35, but I didn't get any out of order. Just too slow I guess.

Canadian and I got 46 might have remembered the other 4. How many of you can name our whopping 13 provinces + territories.
2011-03-11
defygraaavity
I got them all in a minute. If you have the map in front of you, there's no reason you shouldn't get them all! (Unless you're foreign.. I'd miss some Canadian provinces for sure.)
2011-03-15
KatM
Sadly failed. 4/50. Well I live all the way down under, Australia.
2011-03-18
drpepper
How is the average only 39 for this? No wonder the rest of the world thinks Americans are morons --- as least we all bother to try and learn them. In other countries,(Spain for instance), they don't even try. (I lived there, and they were all amazed that I could name all 50 states, they knew 3 or 4 Spanish provinces.
2011-03-19

2011-04-08
sjenkin
got em all, but are you guys kidding about having 2:00+ left?! Are you all on amphetamines to help you type faster?
2011-04-10
xxKurtxx12
no, we people who got it done with 2:00+ left just know how to type fast. I had like 2:30 or something left over.

sadly, I don't know the states of other countries....maybe I shall learn!
2011-05-03
Greg G
Those of you not from the US, you have legitimate excuses for not knowing them all. Those of us that are American, the only excuse is not being able to type quickly enough. Ok, I'll let some bad spelling slide for not getting states like Massachusetts or umm.. well, that's it, as the rest are simple. Yes, Connecticut, Mississippi and Tennessee are easy.
2011-05-03
emmafrisbee
I got them all :) I'm not American either, I'm English. I have done it before though - took me a few goes to get them all elsewhere.

TO the Canadian who challanged us Yankees to name all their provinces I could, except that one Territory they added recently that used to be part of the Northwest Territory
2011-05-22
acer9199
2:28 here. I can say them all in about 30 seconds, and can type reasonably fast... 50 or 60 wpm. So anything faster than that is just ridiculous.
2011-05-22
llamaboy23
what i notice is at the bottom are the ones that i misspelled at first- but then got them, the only reason people miss those are because they don't know how to spell them.
2011-05-23

I did better this time. 46/50. But I ran out of time. I only realised in the last 20 seconds that if I scrolled down I could get hints about what letter they start with.

Hey, to all the people from other countries good job. A lot of Americans probably couldn't name them all either... or spell them correctly enough... sad but true...

I keep forgetting Rhode Island, it's so tiny and so far away from me... I can't believe I've done it twice now. I promise I really did earn a college degree. As you might guess I've never taken a single geography class though.

Eh, only got 39, Ran out of time and was busy trying to remember hard ones and missed Hawaii, New Jersey and Vermont...couldn't spell Connecticut because it doesn't sound like it has a C before the t, oh well I'm not from the USA so it's not bad I suppose

2011-07-03
Georgiapeachrocks
i think it is very easy the only problem is that the spelling is very wack and i believe that the score shouldnt be as low as it is but if it really is people from other countries pulling the score down then let it be that way i mean dont put blame on them because they brought it down. they dont live here and it makes since. and also please if you do live in the USA dont act like your gonna miss your state on purpose its dumb.

I'd be quite impressed for any non-American to get more than 10. I know world cities and capitals pretty well. But I can't name states for other countries, except for maybe Canada, Australia, and a few in Britain.
2011-09-20

47/50 pretty good for a british teenager, i guess.....
2011-09-22
Rittings
100% for another Brit... I think naming the counties of England is much harder because some of them are so small... Unlike the states... When are Puerto Rico gonna be given their status?? They pay federal income tax... what was it the war of independence was fought over again?? "Taxation without representation" wasn't it?? Lol...
2011-10-03

Woo 50/50! and I'm Australian, still at school, and never even been to the Northern Hemisphere let alone the US. Is it really that hard though?
2011-10-03

If I'm not mistaken, @Rittings, statehood has been put to a vote in Puerto Rico and they have passed on the opportunity. I can't say I blame them...and I'm American. :)

giraffapus
I feel so dumb. I know all the states obviously I just cant always think of all 50 of them off the top of my head in a limited amount of time. >_<
2011-10-12
Smurfette
I'm amazed that so many outside the US are getting so many of them. That says a lot about their eyes on us. And they are right - we should know their territories, states, and provinces too. That way it is just "those people over there". As an American I'm actually honored that others know us so well - thanks! we'll work on getting to know you too.
2011-10-17

thecoolpenguin
Some nasty comments in here. I don't understand why some of you are saying if people don't get them ALL, it's an embarrassment to America. When you only have a few minutes to name them ALL, the pressure starts. I'm not afraid to admit I missed 2 of them. I knew what they were but I can't type that fast under pressure but by all means, be ignorant. I'm assuming you could name all 44 presidents in under 4 minutes too, right?
2012-01-22
xway
I don't get why it's so important for Americans to know all of the states. Something about being a true patriot I guess, though I could think of lots of things that are more important than knowing the names of designated pieces of land.
