So after failing college level [Test thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=856571) after [Test thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=854498) after [Test thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=855509) after [Test thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=849949), perhaps one might come to the conclusion that SDMB posters are not as academically advanced as advertised. Sigh.

I think the problem is that we need to go back to high school.

The rules are simple. I give you the definition. You supply the proper word. In the spirit of fairness and encouragement I will tell you the words are ordered properly and I will give you the second-to-last letter of each. Now let’s see who can pass this high school test and move on to better things.

++++++++++

1. Not a good guy: \_ A \_

2. You might carry this on a trip: \_ \_ \_ E \_

3. Type of dish: \_ \_ \_ \_ \_ T \_

4. Gorge: \_ \_ \_ T \_

5. Composer: \_ I \_

6. Fabric: \_ I \_

7. East Indian tree: \_ \_ \_ \_ \_ O \_

8. Comic’s tool : \_ \_ R \_

9. Taken care of: \_ \_ \_ \_ \_ E \_

10. Spiritual peak: \_ \_ R \_

11. Variety of citrus: \_ \_ \_ M \_

12. Add a lot of water to: \_ \_ \_ \_ T \_

If we’re in highschool, meet me under the bleachers, we’ll get high. It’s the only way to test!

Awesome **Blank Slate**! You have passed your SAT test. You are accepted to college. And here I thought all these tests would remain unsolved.

Missing 2 answers still for a tidy conclusion. Anyone?

I really enjoyed writing the [True/False](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20949900&postcount=2) and [Matching](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20983087&postcount=4) tests-- and they are still unsolved at this time (as is the [Makeup test](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20811039&postcount=6), which is just kind of silly). I would be interested if someone could come up with another poster/thread combo for the Matching test. I had to stop with only 16. Someone adding another would very much impress me.
