I have to say no :(

hoyl shit....

but remember that 8th grade back then meant you were probably 20 years old or so.. and thats only for mega rich ppl

Some of those qustions in the Geography section are funny. "extremes of climate in Kansas" :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

Damn, I'd fail even more so then usual.

I am dropping out.

Meh. I'd barely pass. Hahahah suckers.

What the hell?

I'd have to say no, based on the fact that I wasn't alive.

Surely not because that stuff is not what we learn these days. Back then with all the trading emerging, with europe and stuff, thats what you learned at schools. Now if I had gone to school in those times I dont think it would be a problem.

We get questions like that over here rather often. Assuming I've studied for the area in particular, those questions are VERY similar to what we have to answer in about a similar, if not even smaller time frame.

Depend on where you live, if you live at U.S sorry, they barely teach shit at U.S high school.
Here is a example:

I came from China 5 years ago, first time take the SAT (Freaking don't speak english at all) got 1100, three years later after i came to US, retake the SAT and got like 950 on my SAT.

I think that tell you something about US education? Well, I went to a getto ass high school... maybe that's a factor, but still. They fucking mudered my IQ.

Yeah me too, my exams looked very similair to this type of questioning, only differences are that we had more questions but also a longer time period, and every part was on a different day or if it was on the same day it had 1 hour between them.

BTW chruser your avatar scares me :(

dear god man... that final exam is INHUMAN! maybe cuz im only a junior (well, school hasnt started yet..), but DAEMN.
