So I guess this is a map turtle.
I was thinking Graptemys ouachitensis, except I don't see the two other yellow spots below the eye and below the mouth, atleast not in the picture. I don't have a picture of the underside but it looks similiar to the undersides of Graptemys ouachitensis or false map turtles. There are two of them, they belong to a friend of mine... sorry the photos aren't very good, if necessary I'll try to get better photos next weekend.
Any ideas?

False Map Turtle (Graptemys pseudogeographica). You were right in questioning about it not being a Ouachita. The yellow "eyespots" you mentioned are characteristics of the Ouchita and not of the False Map.
