I think it was too slow getting my next question and made me have a poor ass score
Stop the answer page from shifting after in pops up!
I only really know about politics and the social/economics of the 70's. I think there are too many specific questions about pop culture. I was born before the year 1999 so I do not have first-hand experience of that this stuff in a wacky decade.
Too many Star Trek questions. Really, dates?
Didn't do to bad been out of high school for 54+ years.
I can't believe I can remember this stuff. Been out of school for over 40 years. Must had some good teachers and profs.
Make it harder!
I am taking a BRAIN BREAK hard quiz I thought it would never end LOL
Educational an shows what we all need brushed up on an which area's. Now why is that, because it all has a key point even what was aired on television. Amazing how we can commuincate without speaking but yet still not knowing on that one impact level.
30 correct out of 40. It's like high school all over again.
I'm with carolcat. I'm not that much into dates.
To much at end of quiz to many year dates to answer. It is a fun test quiz
I felt there were too many questions asking for a specific date or year.
Too many questions asking for a specific year.
