I vote no.

Your question reminds me of the time our department had a huge debate about
whether the phrase "English Majors Society" needs an apostrophe. The English
majors were having tee-shirts made. We ended up agreeing that "Majors" is
attributive, not possessive.

Does this sentence need an apostrophe?

                        You earned 100% on the states geography test.


The sentences does not mean a geography test made by the state, but a test
on the states... as in where the different states are located.

Thanks for your help.
