Today the high school seniors are taking a test. A very big, scary, important test. The score they get will determine what university they can go to, what they can major in...basically what the rest of their life will be like. There is so much pressure from their teachers and their parents to get a good score. Last year a student said her older sister didn't get the score she wanted, and the mom and sister cried for days. Moms will stand in the school parking lot all day praying for their kids. Elementary and middle schools that are near a high school won't begin their day until the afternoon so there's no noisy distractions for the test-takers. Planes are grounded for the same reason. It's intense. This video sums it up pretty well.
