Notice that the exam took FIVE HOURS to complete.
Gives the saying ‘he only had an 8th grade education’ a whole new
meaning, doesn’t it? No wonder they dropped out after 8th grade.  They already knew more than
they needed to know!
No, I don’t have the answers!  And I don’t think I ever did!

Have fun with this…pass it on so we’re not the only ones who feel
stupid!

The more that I learn, the more that I know that I DON’T know!

I think that if we were to either primarily use this for OUR common Core of education when we home school OR use it to supplement public education along with whatever we have to do to DE-program our kids and our selves.

I would of course add computer stuff to be able to research topics more.

What are YOUR thoughts on this? Please and thank you.
