This question was on the math portion of the Georgia High School Graduation Test. I was told upon commencing the test that it was minimum competency, and I never really thought that Georgia's standards would be so low until I sat down and looked at the first question on the test.

I guessed that it was cone-shaped, but I'm really not sure. It could have been cylindrical, or Hell, even rectangular! Maybe octagonal! That has got to be the lowest of the low geometry standards for elementary school kids.

I expected the test to be below my standards as an AP kid, but I don't see how anyone with less than a serious disability could fail it! Minimum competency my ass! It didn't even do middle-schoolers justice, much less us!
