Oops! From your results, it's clear that the political system of the USA is not something you have much track with. You should watch a few videos about the topic if it interests you. The USA's political system affects the entire world, and it's a good idea to understand it.
Great score! Your results prove that you certainly seem to have a lot of knowledge about the USA! You are a critical thinker, and you make knowledge your own. You are process-oriented, which means you are able to apply what you've learned by focusing on what's important. Well done!
Congratulations, it seems as though you are VERY knowledgeable about the USA's political system. Very few people get a perfect score (or close to it) on this test, so your knowledge of the American system of Government is really something that you ought to be proud of! You are clearly a life-long learner, which is something that's far less common than you might like to believe.
