Here in Wisconsin, the GED test is only available to "at risk" teenagers (as in pregnant girls who're below average intelligence.) But teenagers who could pass this test and bypass "normal" education and who are capable of holding jobs and attending college or tech school are not allowed to take the test, even if they are above average intelligence or would obviously benefit from not being forced to continue with highschool. In most states, this is the exact same situation. Any ideas as to why we can't let the smart kids out of school, but we can let out all the little whores who won't get a job anyway?
