I heard about this test this mornen on my radio station
Geography: Through what waters should a vessel pass in going from England through the Suez Canal to Manila?
Geography #6: As I am not American, my knowledge of American geography is lacking and I do not know the answer.
Arithmetic #10: I have no idea what a cord is. I assume it is some unit of measure, but I'm not familiar with it.
Geography #4: I recall learning about the St. Lawrence Seaway in school. I don't recall the Erie canal. I assume it is somewhat related to the Seaway or a part of it. That particular detail I don't know off hand. Sounds like some canal by Lake Erie.
9. Richard Nixon... but it can't be him, not on an exam paper from 1912.
Cord is roughly a pickup trucks bed worth of wood.
First one that came to my mind but he resigned before they officially impeached him.
The answer is Andrew Johnson (yes, I looked it up)
Examples...
Civil Government: What is a Copyright? Patent Right?
I think everyone miss the point. Would you be able to pass it being at eighth grade? I think most people don't realize that some were even lucky to use abacus. Some of us will not be able to do it with calculators. I don't think tables of conversion were allowed either.

Anyone willing to have a go at this 2012 tenth grade physics exam? - I found in the office.

I'll see if I can find one of our English exam papers later.

I'm game. Physics was my favourite subject in school. My Chinese isn't good enough to understand the test. I'd be interested in trying it out if you can find an English version.
School curriculum changes throughout the years, so it would be unfair to give a test that may not test the same subjects you would be studying. Being from another country would make it even harder as the subjects I learned would be different.
