Take this Civics Test.

College Seniors Failed a Basic Test on America’s History and Institutions.
College seniors know astoundingly little about America’s history, political thought, market economy and international relations.
The overall average score for the approximately 7,000 seniors who took the American civic literacy exam was 54.2%, an “F.” That is consistent with the overall average of 53.2% posted by seniors last year. Not one college surveyed can boast that its seniors scored, on average, even a “C” in American civic knowledge.
Harvard seniors scored highest, but their overall average was 69.6%, a “D+.” That is almost identical to the 69.7% earned by Harvard seniors last year. Yale and Princeton seniors averaged only 65.9% and 61.9%, respectively. At 18 colleges, the average senior scored less than 50%.
The average senior failed all four subjects, scoring less than 60% in each.
