TEST

Test by William Sleator

And you thought your standardized tests were rough! In the not so distant future, America relies on one single test, the XCAS, to decide your future. Those who pass can go to college, get a job and live in luxury. Those who fail are doomed to a life of traffic that never ends, breathing in toxic pollution and no bright future. Its no wonder that all the teachers have stopped teaching and only work on the XCAS and that the test's answers are worth people's lives.

Ann knows that she won't pass the XCAS, but when she finds a connection between a powerful corporation and the XCAS, failing becomes the least of her worries.
