I’ll Be Impressed If You Score 11/15 on This General Knowledge Quiz (feat. JFK)

How well do you actually know the events of those years?

11 comments

John F. Kennedy is one of the most interesting figures in all of American and world history. As a young and popular American president gunned down while riding in a motorcade in Dallas, John F. Kennedy's life and presidency has been one of the most fondly remembered of all time. Despite his short presidency, JFK ranks highly in polls measuring Americans' attitudes towards former U.S. presidents. He also lived through some of the most tumultuous times in history and played a key role in many important events.

The political climate at the time of JFK's presidency was fairly intense. The Cold War was ongoing, the space race was a big deal, U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War escalated, not to mention the ongoing fight for civil rights in the country. JFK was president of the United States while all of that was going on. Take this general trivia quiz to see how much you know about the world during that era.

    11/15 I remember quite a bit of this when it was on TV. Everyone was shocked! It took some time for people to except that a president had been shot and killed in the United States. It was hard to believe that someone was crazy enough to do such a thing.

    You are the JFK Trainee!ย While you didn’t knock this one out of the park, there’s going to be an entirely different set of questions in the next history quiz. Try again then to see if you can beat your score!

    to be honest I’m not the smartest in history subject

    You are the JFK Scholar!ย Your knowledge about history and John F. Kennedyย in particular knows no bounds.

    I was in Elementary School at the time of his death. Living during that time was basically flooding all news broadcasts so you needed to keep up as this video was replayed numerous times. My folks got the books covering this for us 3 kids. We still have them and I look at them every November 22, and again on his birthday on May 27th. To pay my respect as it were. ๐Ÿซก. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ.

    11/15. Thought I would do a little better. I was 13 when he was assassinated. I’m not American but remember some of the events of the time, but it was a long time ago.

    10/15 Not bad, to say I didn’t know much, Bit early would have been about 7or so and since then not very interested in American politics only got more interested in ours since becoming older.
