This is doable if you work on it. Its not really a test of your ability to name all the countries just speed at entering a variety of letters. I didn't do very well but what I did get was just entering, ae, as, at, al, au, and so on.

I think just the opposite; it's not about how many you can name to me, its how fast you can think of the name. I looked at the countries and entered the first two letters, and even if i waste my time entering the first two letters of only one country, like rw (versus the first two of many countries, like you did) I would still do pretty good.

Not surprised that those are the most and least guessed for singles and multiples; Russia is huge so it catches you eye and you type RU but the Vatican and Vanuatu are tiny and harder to see in the panic of 90 seconds

You just have to develop a system for catching the ones you always miss.

So, the description is actually fallacious. Unless you take the pairs of letters and combine them to make other, larger words you have to type at a speed of over 60 wpm. It is definitely faster than 23 wpm, because taken as individual pairs they must each be considered a single word. My best so far is 159 and that is after 25 tries. Stating the obvious, but this quiz is quite challenging.

I cant beat this one for the life of me😢 I go back and remember stuff so I can learn and retake it till I get 100 percent. My score is perfect on every quiz ive taken except for a few of timed ones like this. This is a really great quiz though!!!
