130-Year-Old Columbia University Entrance Exam Quiz

One thing I love is finding old high school and college exams and trying to see if I can pass them in all of my 21st-century glory. I usually can’t, but it’s still fun to try. Anyway, here are 10 questions from an old Columbia University entrance exam I found. The original test from 1893 was all free-response, and I modified it to be multiple choice. You’re welcome.
