The link to the questions doesn't work. Can you put up a good link? Once I read the questions, I'll know whether this is the subject I want to attack in my next UPI column. I've already got in hand a copy of McGuffy's Reader to show how much general knowledge standards have fallen since 1900.

Please keep me posted.

You are aware, of course, that school was not mandatory past 6th grade so there were a lot fewer dumb kids posing as seniors in high school.

My father-in-law passed the GED test when he was in his 60's but was refused a diploma because he dropped out of school prior to 6th grade.
