A common bias among the smart is to overestimate how smart everyone else is. This was certainly my experience in moving from top rank universities as a student to a mid rank university as a teacher. A better intuition for common abilities can be found by browsing the US National Assesment of Adult Literacy
your children will be minorities in the nation your ancestors built and fought and died for. you will be part of the first group of humans on earth to willingly hand their homeland over to other people and be happy about it.
Using the information in the table, write a brief paragraph summarizing the how much parents and teachers agreed or disagreed on the questions in the table.

This could be an aspect of the literacy exam as well- the ability to parse that question properly the way that you have done. I also read it twice to be sure I knew what the question was, but that's part of the test isn't it?
That the US was overwhelmingly white stands without question, but I'd like to see the source on
"as late as 1950 there were more Swiss in the U.S. than Mexicans."
That is a little bit hard for me to picture. Operation Wetback alone targeted more than one million Mexicans for deportation, while total net Swiss migration to the US from 1820 to 1950 is only 306,227. After pegging births/deaths to this number I'd say the number of Swiss Americans total could not be more than 500,000-700,000 at that time in the '50s. The last census data puts the number of Swiss-Americans at ~900,000 in 2013...*
"Ha ha, the US was never White!" Little Peter has learned to parrot socialist propaganda like a good boy. Fact: as late as 1950 there were more Swiss in the U.S. than Mexicans. The U.S. was always overwhelmingly White, at least 90%. That only changed in the last decades with the Left's plan to import voters in order to enrich themselves. But you are too dishonest to acknowledge that. Of course, if you were honest you wouldn't be a leftist.
Not necessarily true that multicultural society produces military dictatorship, plus not so sure how "multicultural" our society will be, as most people will be either Christians or agnostics of various backgrounds with other religious minorities like Jews and Muslims continuing to be...minorities. Yes, it will be multi-racial, but not necessarily multicultural. You WNs are pissing against the wind I suggest you just go set up your homeland in Alaska and gtfo.

The numbers appear to differ, but AB60303 appears to be an exact match. I'm guessing it's just from a different year.
Jimmyboy, you sound like a severely disturbed person, full of yourself. You should listen more to others, but it seems you are too much in love with seeing your own words in print.
"Uh, no, that's blatantly wrong" - My, how smart you sound starting your post with arrogant crap like that.
"ranks in the top 2% of Mensans" - I think you mean you rank in the top 2% of the population's IQ, which is the qualification needed for Mensa membership. Mensa does not hand out stats on how a member ranks within the membership. Which you'd know if you actually were a member.
I am in Mensa. You say "people who think they are smart tend to vastly overrate how smart they are". I think that opinion is common for all people, not just those who "think they are smart", which is a nonsense category. A better category would be to say "people who are smart tend to...." but you couldn't bear calling Mensa members smart, could you? I suspect you are not in Mensa at all.
How much do people care about answering these questions correctly?
How much do you have to care to answer “what color is the sky?” correctly?
Myy minority co-workers are excellent and non-corrupt. I don't resent them or their families and people. The future looks bright. Take a chill pill.

Your first sentence is true only if you consider races valid categories. In fact, there is only one race: the human race.
It's quite statistically improbable that your second sentence is true.

I don't believe in the one drop rule, European people will still be around if they mixed genetically with other peoples.
On AB21501, a pretty wide range of points was marked as correct. They had to mark the same or lower than WInder '84 to be marked wrong.

Where the hell is question AB30901? Can't find it anywhere on the internet. Why would a big brained genius use this as a sample?
In French you would say "je et mes amis", and "he" only translates to "I"
I only sound that way lying garbage like you.
