blank screen B :(
erm, well, don't like geography anyway, knew where UK was though!! Sure someone has moved Bulgaria.....;D ;D ;D
Great fun, got 27 but was close with most of them!
27 also. Some I had absolutely no idea, others I was very close. And to think I passed the A level!
Not telling 8)
But, then again, Europe's changed since I did my exams ;D
I am amazed I got 53%. What a fantastic site for children. Really made me think about where places were. Thanks Baggy, lot of fun. :) busy_lizzie
Yes that was a good test, enjoyed doing it. Got 77% whatever that means. Its them new countries that got to me.
;D ;D ;D ;D
76% Makes me want to go travelling.
I'm going to get my son to have a go.
They also do animal quizes etc if you can find out the home page link (I'll try and find it).I do better with the animal ones 19/20.

40/45 average error 76 miles :o and i hated geography at school ::)
slightly worrying, I got 32/45 and I have a degree in geography!
I was quite happy with 71% ... Now after years of doing cpurier work give me places in the UK and not only would I place them but also tell you where the best bacon buttie shop was.
ah yes those greasy spoons, I always loved them. It always used to irritate me when colleagues would insist on heading to a Little Chef or similar, when I knew a superb bacon and tomato butty with a pint of tea was only round the corner ...

35/45 Average error 139 miles - 78%.
No comment.
PS Baggy - if sitting at home ill means you come up with gems like this that I can use in the classroom then... No I won't say it, I am poorly too and would not wish it on anybody :)
Get well soon.
87% and 58 miles. Guess it helps living this side and driving to ski and beach hols. Need to bone up on the new east EU lot though.
33/45 which I thought was surprisingly good, considering how bad I always was at geography. Have to say it got easier as it went on though (& the shapes of the spaces & the countries started to match ::)!).
Well i was rubbish - and i did a geography degree!! My excuse was the drag & drop was sluggish - made me drop things in the wrong place. The concept is brilliant though.
I got 70something %, so quite pleased.
Sent the link to 4 of my colleagues who work with GCSE students, and they all thought it was brilliant! - Nice one Baggy!
What was weird for me was, few day later went to school "showing off" meeting, primary, and what were they showing off, on new computer white board thingies?!?! The exact same thing! Guess who did really well, second time round....... ;D ;D ;D Tried to look nonchalant though.... Think Head may give me certificate! ;)
