How well do you do on this 33-question Civics Quiz (http://www.americancivicliteracy.org/resources/quiz.aspx)?
More than 2,500 randomly selected Americans took ISI’s basic 33-question test on civic literacy and more than 1,700 people failed, with the average score 49 percent, or an “F.” Elected officials scored even lower than the general public with an average score of 44 percent and only 0.8 percent (or 21) of all surveyed earned an “A.” College educators scored an average of 55%
