Stories like this make me so glad I'm homeschooled. Even though I'm in Canada, and homeschooling for me just means taking all of my courses online, I am continually thankful that I am not forced to be a part of the public school system. At least I am able to take courses that are designed to teach, and not to prepare one for a test. Indeed, some of the courses I've taken didn't even havtests or final exams, but instead projects that demonstrated the knowledge and skill that you acquired through the course. I find that a much better indication of how I did throughout the course and what areas I need to improve on then any piece of paper that has been 'standardized'.
