He actually got it wrong as well. His question is vague because the progressive year falls in Jan. If you were born lets say 1992 and now its 2002. Thats 10 years ago and you would still be 10, but now lets take his question and its august, but your birthday is in may and he asked you this question. Your correct answer would be 11 because as he tried to correct her, he just attempted to use the YEAR which would only work if you were BORN on the day hes asking the question, but his question doesn't state that, hes only saying "10 years ago" by the YEAR we currently in. So the correct answer is either 10 or 11.

It's funny because my primary language is Spanish. I had to learn English, and I learned it so well that I have zero accent, and learned it by old fashion reading, tutoring, and practice. I went to the library, voraciously read books on everything, and anything. Learned to hand write in the second grade, learned to tell time on an analog clock in grammar school, taught myself to play guitar, etc.. [A large portion of] Kids & even young adults these days with every advantage in their hands, on their fingertips, every piece of info, everything they have these days at their disposal that I didn't have, still struggle with basic stuff. Granted their are also lots of very smart kids and young adults that are as smart as whips, the level of struggling with answering basic questions displayed in this video is just incredibly scary.

I'm a dual national who spent some of my childhood in the US but most of it as an expat in Europe. When I took the university exam for a language and translation school in my country, I was given the subjects aimed at americans due to an administrative mixup. Now, for the most part, this didn't change much for me. However, there was a General Knowledge component to the exam where you had to answer 5 to 10 questions and the difference between the American oriented test and the European one was shocking. I had prepared with practice exams aimed at people educated in this European country, so the questions I prepared were along the lines of "What was the Age of Enlightenment and name 3 influential people from that time.", "What were the last 3 countries to join the European Union?", "What was the Treaty of Versailles and when was it signed?", etc. When I saw the questions aimed at americans I thought it was a joke. The questions included: - "Name three American states that start with the letter A." - "What country has a maple leaf on its flag?" - "Where are the winter olympics currently being held?" - "What does the acronym NATO stand for?" Easiest test of my life xD I was a little insulted even, but I'm starting to realize that they may have been spot on with those questions.

"What is a country?" I taught a course at the local college, and had some students who didn't know what the word "political" meant. I used the word melancholy, and there was this blank look from the class. I asked if they knew what the word meant, and maybe a third did. I taught high school a little and the 11th graders were reading at a 4th grade level, or what USED to be a fourth grade level. This is not surprising since the kids don't do ANY homework. Sure, you could assign it, but no one would actually do it. The parents didn't care, and the administrators were salaried bureaucrats who were phoning it in. We're talking Idiocracy here--or something out of an Orwell novel.

As an Aussie Gen-Xer, I grew up learning both metric and British imperial measurements as we were transitioning from imperial to metric in the 1970s.

I knew this despite being Czech, because I often encounter American description of bodily height, like 5'6", and I know it only goes to eleven before it becomes another foot. But I wouldn't be able to tell you off the bat just how long 24 inches is in centimetres 😅 Go metric 😁

The WHO warned that the average IQ was dropping 7 points per generation since the 1970's. A generation is 20 years, 50 years have passed since 1970, so today's average is 82.5. It's a good thing for these people that the Motor Vehicle Department doesn't test IQ, because you need an IQ of 86 or higher to hold a driver's license. An IQ of 82 means you're mentally disabled!

@@carlinetorweihe4246 The problem is that education isn't in the hands of the educators. It's in the hands of the bean-counters, who treat education as a cost. In so doing, they're ignoring quality (of textbooks, for example) and going with the cheapest crap available. Back in the 70's renowned physicist Richard Feyman was briefly in charge of adjudicating textbooks. He wrote that his recommendations were always ignored in favour of cheap, useless junk. Read Surely You're Joking Mr Feynman for plenty of examples. It's available as a free pdf.

@Kate Moore Not all but I bet they would answer most of them, most of these questions are very basic that regardless of country we are from, we should really know them. It was surprising how so many were struggling with them and that should send off alarm bells about the future generation depending on the percentage of the young that are educated like this. I mean, don't get me wrong, there are clueless people all over the world but I've never seen it as bad as what we see it in the US unless we're going to poorer countries where many of the people have not been educated at all.

I work for a community college in the US. We have a lot of students from West Africa. Most of them are better educated than our domestic students. We're open enrollment meaning we take anyone regardless of GPA or test scores and offer "learning support" courses, basically mandatory tutoring, to help low scoring students complete their college level English and Math courses. About 80% of our domestic students are required to take at least one of these support classes based on their test placement. Conversely, it's very rare that one of our immigrant students needs them at all if they come from a country where English is their 1st language.

We had limited toys growing up but we played chess and games such as choosing a letter and than recording countries, capital cities, rivers, mountains etc. and for each answer getting points. If somebody else had the same answer their points were halved and if someone didn't know answers didn't get any points. The winner was the one with most of the points. That was before we started school.
