What is literacy?

it's a test in ontario that grade 10 students are forced to take and pass, if you don't pass you are forced to take it again until you pass or are forced to take a class against your will that will "help" you pass. Because if you do not pass in the future years of high school, you will fail high school..... it's also a shit load of ass because they say it's really hard and a lot of people fail... but it's extremely easy...too easy...

Before: "Ah CRAP!! the literacy test is today!! it's going to be hard!!"

After: "That was the easiest test ever...i didnt even need to study...."
