    Had all but one of them with about 7 minutes left and just couldn't come up with Minnesota (a big10+1) school (the shame).

    I had the first 43 in less than two minutes and thought, "Wow, this is easier than I thought it would be," but then it took me about seven minutes to get the last seven states. I finished with 0:47 left and almost forgot New Hampshire.

    I feel your pain, just couldn't come up with it. If I was in 3rd grade I could name the states and the capitals in 5 minutes. I've only been to 13 (Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia). I'm going to make it a goal to make it to all 50...

    Finished all 50 with 7:32 remaining. I KNOW I can do it faster.... (This is a great tool for grad school procrastination!)

    7:11 left. I forgot Rhode Island and Nebraska and that cost me about 45 seconds.

    I got all 49.

    I don't count the one I missed a state - thats right, I'm looking at you Missouri.

    2:43 left. Oklahoma took me like 3 minutes.

    And then there was the issue of how to spell Massachusetts.
