I got 4 right on the British one I found. Not so good. They want me on a plane outta there! I think it was a joke though.
spot's questions will be too difficult. Do you know him?

Ten on the UK test (but it is based on the contents of a book no-one has seen and which makes no sense) and 8 on the Australian one.

It's how Americans structure their school teaching, as best I understand, but the idea that it's spreading overseas is distressing. The technique has nothing to do with education and everything to do with producing lots of statistics very cheaply.
I got 9/14 for the English one.
The Australian one I did as badly as one might expect, not having had the book available beforehand:

Thanksh oscar, but can I play it??? Heh heh.
I will try the Aussie one, but I probably wouldn't have a clue about some of the local stuff as the Aussies are not as ubiquitous in modern global culture as our American friends, I should try the British one, as I was born in Birmingham and therefore I can have British citizenship by birth if I choose, but can I pass the test????
