You are allowed to retry if you want to get to a higher level. The questions are randomised, and you improve as you learn along the way :)

Yeah it's fun... I had this on my facebook account for a while. Got to level 10, too, with an IQ of 113 :p
The really nasty one to take is the Photo challenge, though.

Meh. Map is too small. >_<
I also got confused, and thought Indonesia was New Zealand. :lol
That'll teach me for looking at atlases where NZ is in a little box next to Australia... ^_^;

Okay what the hell Canada - WTF is Iqaluit because it certainly wasn't there when I was dutifully colouring in my map for social studies. :mad

Wow. I thought it was just our sucky english schools that made you spend all of your geography lessons learning to colour in maps. o_O
I guess its a universal constant, like politics causing headaches, and broken buscuits having no calories in.

Here are a couple more:
<a href=http://www.lizardpoint.com/fun/geoquiz/usaquiz.html>United States</a> (144/150) I am a little rusty, but I am happy with my result. I expect some americans to get 150 points on this one though.
<a href=http://www.lizardpoint.com/fun/geoquiz/euroquiz.html>Europe</a> (137/141) as usual, the Balkan countries play mindtricks on me! :grumble

I only done the world one so far go to level 10 but those African and South American cities really mess me up. Plus the map is so small I had trouble making out a few places.
Edit I made it to level 11 and came with in 50k of reaching 12. Those islands mess me up too probably worse than the african cities since I get closer with the African ones heh.
Oh my Traveler IQ is 120 on world. Geography is one of my strong points :)

Highest I've gotten so far is lvl 10 with IQ of 114 and 375,221 points. Some of the islands I knew but it was 50/50 on the islands and Africa that killed me.
