Summary "Test Problem" by Alan J. Ramm is a science fiction short story published in the early 1950s. The narrative follows Jeremy Hovah, a student at a futuristic university, as he undertakes an examination that tests his ability to replicate an entire star system using his mental faculties. The story explores themes of creativity, responsibility, and the ethical implications of creation in a scientific context. In the story, Jeremy finds himself facing a challenging exam in Advanced Deliberation And Memory, where he must recreate a star system based on transmitted information. As he works on the project, he successfully generates planets, plants, and animals, immersing himself in the task for six long days. However, an unexpected creature emerges in his simulation, which he cannot bring himself to destroy, leading to a conflict with the instructor. The story ultimately concludes with Jeremy's failure to adhere to the rules about creation, highlighting the consequences of his actions and sparking contemplation about the nature of creation and sentience.
