This article asks Are You Smarter Than A 1954 8th Grader?

It turns out I’m not. Here are some of the questions:

• list the cabinet positions and the people who hold these positions at the present time.
• tell the provisions of each of the amendments to the Constitution
• write the preamble to the Constitution

I remember having to recite the preamble to the Constitution in my own 8th grade class, but I think naming all the cabinet members is a little much. Hit the link for the rest.
