This has been in place for decades, I had to take it in the 80s in a public school. It’s called ASVAB like the article mentions. This is nothing new.
The required part would be new.
In some schools. In my public school, we took practice ACTs and SATs.
Just because something’s “been done for decades” isn’t a good reason to keep doing it, much less to expand the practice. I mean, 50 years after the draft ended, but men still have to register, isn’t a good reason to sign up women.
I’m not saying keep it because we’ve always done it, I’m saying it’s always been around. This is to get people riled up about something that’s always existed.
WTF is this about? I showed up stoned from skipping class in 10th grade and took the ASVAB back in the day. I placed in the top 1% of the nation not remembering a single question. I was told I qualified for any position in the military. I got DQ’d so it was for nothing. Why is this an issue now?
