i love these geography quizzes cause as someone who just straight up did not have a geography class in school, it's very fun to test my knowledge of things i had to teach myself when i was 14.
#that whole β€œthe american education system failed me πŸ˜­πŸ˜­β€ thing always pisses me bc i literally skipped several classes i needed to take#i moved around a lot growing up specifically during elementary and middle school#so i just skipped several classes entirely because the school district i would move to had different curriculums#geography for example was one of them. i was supposed to take it in the 7th grade but at the start i moved somewhere else#and started school where i didnt have geography on my class schedule. instead i took world history which i took again a year later#when i moved back. and since i was expected to have already taken a geography class i literally just didnt#i took history of nc instead for my social studies class bc thats what i was scheduled for#the same thing happened to me with fractions in elementary school. it was a little different because going forward we still dealt with them#but i simply was not introduced to them. i was just thrown into them as if i had seem them before in 3rd grade#so i had to just catch up to where everyone else was and teach myself geography and read to kill a mockingbird#so i wasnt behind so its fun to test how well i did at actually basically homeschooling myself on certain topics#also. people should just be aware of the world around them in general not just in school or what your teachers teach you#like think for yourself anyways but it pisses me off when ppl say that cause like bro i literally did not have several important classes#and i still know that mexico is not just desert or whatever that one post said
