I would have gotten 31-33 too but I gave the test the stupid answer it wanted with regard to increased spending and lower taxes to stimulate the economy.

Are you more knowledgeable than the average citizen? The average score for all 2,508 Americans taking the following test was 49%; college educators scored 55%. Can you do better? Questions were drawn from past ISI surveys, as well as other nationally recognized exams.

Its totally believable.  If you would see some of the postings of some of the "teachers" on my facebook page - you would be mortified that these people have a capitive audience for 8 hours a day.
