An eighth grade exam from 1912 containing questions in the subjects of spelling, reading, math, grammar, geography, physiology, government and history from the Bullitt County schools in Kentucky is proving difficult for many, according to ABC News.
The Bullitt County History Museum released the test to the public, writing, "we thought you might like to see what the test looked like a hundred years ago.
"Obviously it tested some things that were more relevant at that time than now, and it should not be used to compare student knowledge then and now."
Of course, this hasn't stopped many people from doing exactly that. Especially regarding the material that is equally relevant today.
There are questions such as "compare arteries and veins as to function" and "where is the blood carried to be purified?"
Other science questions include defining the Cerebrum and Cerebellum and naming "the organs of circulation."
The exam has questions such as describing the difference between copyright and patent rights.
At that time, the schools were mainly one-room schoolhouses in rural areas. Students would come to the area courthouse once or twice a year to take the eighth grade exam, considered a "Common Exam."
"Some scholarships were provided to those who passed to go on to high school, which was also a big deal back then," the museum writes. "In those days, high school was sometimes another county away and a rare thing for many farm children to be able to otherwise attend."
The museum published the exam hoping to provide people with a little fun, as well as a challenge.
"It's quite a challenging test," David Strange, an executive director at the museum, told the Huffington Post. "I do try to remind everyone it's a 1912 test and you need to place yourself in that mindset sometimes."
The exam ends with one line.
"And remember to smile a little when reading this exam," the exam reads.
