Could you pass a SAT test from 1858?

To celebrate the 150 year anniversary of the SAT exams some mock examinations were given to children of 10 and 11 years-old, written in the age-old style.

They covered English language and literature, science and maths just like today's but also delved into those all important subjects like zoology, drawing and Greek among many others.

Judging from these tricky sample questions, education has definitely got a little easier for the average 10 or 11 year-old.

But how well would you achieve? Take the test!
