I'm no Ivy League Intellectual. . .

. . .so, I figure what rudimentary education I've had has been a windfall for the taxpayers of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. I come to this conclusion after having taken an online civics test hosted by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute, which I stumbled upon while perusing The Anchoress.

My results:

You answered 53 out of 60 correctly — 88.33 %
Average score for this quiz during September: 74.8%
Average score since September 18, 2007: 74.8%

She beat me by a couple of questions (Blast!) but I can still hold my head high, secure in the knowledge that I outperformed your average Ivy Leaguer by nearly 19 percentage points.

In your face, Harvard!

USA! USA! USA! USA!
