Today almost no high school seniors could complete the test much less pass it. The public schools have been dumbed down. Students in advanced programs are probably more advanced today but the standards for the average students have declined dramatically.
Teachers have lost control of the classrooms in most schools. Students learn little or nothing. Public schools have become a waste of time and money.
Have become? Nothing has changed in the last century. As I quoted Mark Twain earlier....
I've never let my school interfere with my education.
