somebody on argie leddit posted an exam from the 70s for what would be roughly equivalent to first year of HS for americans. tbh even in my current retard form I could pass the test, but I would have to sit down and actually think and go step by step. most people would certainly fail it, both adults and kids currently in HS. shit was so much harder than it is now it's not even remotely comparable, 13yo kids were doing stuff that you don't do until uni now, if at all. they're definitely trying to turn us into cattle.
