LOL -- Jordan...I got that too (19/20) -- I think its a great description for both of us (except the keeping quiet part )

in my 'defense' I was a SS teacher for 6 years and I would be ashamed if I didn't get most of those...

i got an 18 and the following excerpt is what was said about my score...not very nice...

'You have an impressive understanding of the world for an American. It is likely that you feel intellectually isolated in your home country, and often have to hide your opinions from others. Deep down, you realise that your country is the single biggest threat to world peace in modern times, but you have not yet summoned up the courage to emigrate.'

I got 16 the first time - I re-took it a few times and this is what I got for 20 out of 20:

If you are American, the only way you got this score is by doing the quiz 50 times, and memorizing the correct answers. You need to approach the world in a less aggressively competitive way and learn to live with your inadequacies, rather than seeking to feel through bigotry and false national pride.

(To be honest, most of the questions weren't repeats, I just happened to get a bunch that I happened to know - I am HORRIBLE at world capitals)
