True enough, including whoever put together this test.

There are technically only 46 states in the Union. Massachusetts, Kentucky, Virginia and Pennsylvania are commonwealths. This is just one of those little points a teacher once used on us back when I was in school, just to prove that we all weren't as smart as we'd thought (as such, this one's forever burned on my soul......).

According to the test, I scored 18, but I'm giving myself 19 for that one.
