I was right on 11 of 15 (73%). With my BA in history, the prof who taught me British History in 1974 is probably rolling in his grave

1. I got 13 of 15, but it involved at least 2 lucky guesses

[Doc_Technical]

2. I got 10 out of 15.

Not bad for a self-taught Yank.

[Lionel Mandrake]

5. 13 out of 15,

which surprised the hell out of me. Not bad for an American who couldn't tell a zebra (that's pronounced ZEBBruh) from a pelican when visiting London.

6. 10 out of 15 for me.

[no bs joe]

10. 12 of 15 Correct

Boudicca, English laws in Wales, and European carpenters kept me from perfection. Hey, I've never even been to the UK!

11. 10 out of 15

Not great GREAT but OK

12. You did better than I did, by two! That first question threw me and it was downhill from there!

I'm lousy at the "early stuff" I'm afraid!

13. I got 12 out of 15 right. That's pretty good. The three I got wrong were:

"When did the English first impose English laws on Wales and the Welsh?"

I said 14th Century and the correct answer was 16th Century.

"What proportion of the population of the UK were killed by the Black Death?"

I said a quarter and the correct answer was a third.

"Which kinds of skilled workers did not come to England in large numbers from Europe in the Middle Ages?"

I said engineers and the correct answer was carpenters.

14. 100 for US, only 7 out of 15 for UK

[Kaleva]

15. 12 out of 15. An improvement on my earlier score.

Didn't remember taking this test almost 2 years ago until reading thru the thread after I posted my results.
