3/10
Black box = orange
October Revolution = Nov
Hundred years war = 116
but honestly what high school teaches you about all of the above?
many schools cover parts of each of the above. But I do not know of one school that teaches you about each and everyone of those subjects

Re: New high school exit exam.
"How long did the Hundred Years War last? 116 years" +1 Thanks highschool! For abit of useless knowledge that I am sure I'll need for moments like this!
"From which animal do we get cat gut? Sheep and Horses"+1
"In which month do Russians celebrate the October Revolution? November"+1 Thank you Tom Clancy.
"What color is a purple finch ? Crimson"MAYBE +1 I said red, does that count?
"What is the color of the black box in a commercial airplane? Orange (of
course)"+1 Modern Marvels, of course.
I read a lot of books, and its suprising how much knowledge, useless or not, almost subconciously.
