When I was in school we took the test in the 8th grade in order to move on to HS. We then had to take a similar, but tougher, test when we were seniors in order to graduate. No pass on either test you failed that grade, whether it was 8th grade or 12th. Back in the good old days when you actually had to learn what was taught and you never learned how to use a condom in school!
We didn't even know what a condom was. I'll bet some of my teachers wouldn't have either, as it was called something else.
