“Do history exams get harder every year?”

“Do history exams get harder every year?” is a jocular one-liner. After each year, there is more history to learn! “I feel sorry for each new generation of students,since history class gets harder every year” was cited on Twitter on August 11, 2009.
 
“Do history exams get harder every year?” was cited on Sickipedia in October 2010, and the one-line saying went viral.

@watsoncomedian History A Levels must get harder every year, because the events that took place happened progressively longer ago.

History courses get harder every year as there are always new things to be added to the curriculum.

Students ten years from now will have a harder time studying history in highschool.
