Are You Smarter Than a Recent Immigrant?

Not if you go to high school in Oklahoma, apparently. Oklahoma high school students were administered a test consisting of questions taken from the U.S. citizenship exam (passing rate: 92 percent). Only 3 percent of the students passed. A full 75 percent of the students could not name our first president. Only one in 10 knew how many justices were on the Supreme Court. The question most got right: What ocean is on the east coast of the United States.
