What’s the Quiz About?
Think you know your US Presidents? The featured quiz this week tests your knowledge in a different way. You’re given names, and you have to decide if that person was a US President. This quiz sounds much easier than it is. The decoy names are purposely tricky, other historical figures are there to throw you off. Additionally, there are people with similar names to actual presidents. This means that you can’t just look at the last name, as there are decoys with the same last name as a real US President. Finally, this quiz is a blitz, there are 88 names to get through in 2 minutes, which gives you 1.36 seconds per question. Don’t let these numbers overwhelm you, roughly 20% of people still get every answer right on this quiz.
US President or Not? was played 22,681 times while it was published, and ended up with a rating of 4.5.
