This is a pretty decent quiz. There were a few questions, however, that were either too obvious or too specific to a certain area. For example, the question, What is the full name of America? is probably the easiest question on any quiz that I have ever seen. The question about being across the world from Boston is a multiple choice, and you can just keep on guessing. Though I did like how you put the official names, especially of Taiwan, which is an interesting twist to the question. The question about the busiest MBTA station is too specific to Boston. As a proud Bostonian, I know that, but as you can see by the small 11% correct rating, the question is nearly impossible for anyone outside of Boston. The same goes for the one about the MTA. Lastly, the question about Chicago-Midway is rather obscure, do to the fact that it is not an extremely large airport. Other than those minor details, I enjoyed this quiz greatly.
