Actually, the test was fairly difficult.  I’m a historian, and I only got 23 of 27 correct. For example, I didn’t know that Shay’s Rebellion caused the sending of delegates to the Continental Congress, or that there was action in St. Louis during the Revolution. Some were pathetically simple, but it wasn’t the slam dunk they would have you think.
