imagine the test could only be failed if you tried it, and you could only try it if you had a pencil. It would be ideal to only give students who knew the material pencils, right?

Bro what? Who’s deciding whether someone is deserving on a pencil in your analogy? And how? Wouldn’t that alienate some people from ever having the chance to pass the test? Yes I think we should have better controls. But it shouldn’t be by limiting accessibility. It should be by increasing education and resources. (The solution backed by criminology.) I guess in your analogy it would be equivalent to offering tutoring and counseling. Maybe handwriting lessons too.

My point is. Don’t take the pencil away. Put more effort into making sure that pencil is used for good.
