The pacer test was terrible

9 years ago Featured

I have bad anxiety and I had an anxiety before and after the test also I didn't have my inhaler and they made me run. A friend of mine and I had anxiety attacks in our gym class because we have social anxiety we were shaking and nervous, also all the people in our gym class were upperclassmen.

Brutal

YES

I always hated the Pacer, never was good at it, and felt it was unfair

This test is cruel

I hate this test, it's unfair and has literally made me vomit.

Yes

Yes definitely should be banned

This petition is completely wrong. No one states that you must complete any number of levels before dropping out, it simply has a statistical ballpark number that says *on average* when people get tired and drop out with different genders. If you can't take the physical pressure of running, don't run. The whole idea of the test is to determine how much effort you put into pushing yourself, which is ultimately the goal of the physical ed class itself. You state that it is an unfair method of measuring student fitness, however if that is the case, then we must also change the length of math tests, and let our knowledge be measured by whether or not we can do the test in 4 hours rather than 1. This whole argument is silly, and you are attempting to acquire backing from others who have had rough times with these tests. Personally, the beep test is my favourite activity when it comes to physical health, it really tests your mental grit more than anything else. So if you dislike the test itself, or maybe the shame that comes with dropping out before your recommended time, then go to your teacher and tell him that you have a problem. But most of all you should just run it anyways just to get an understanding of your own personal limit.

YES

BAN IT PLEASE

The finess test is ok but they make you try to hard even if you have helath issues they say it's required we need to end this for good

This test is unfair to students and has been found to lead to health issues

I had to do this through out all of elementary school & I turned out just fine. People need to get off their lazy asses and stop complaining. You aren't forced to keep going, you can stop running whenever you please. If you choose to run until you feel sick, that's on you. But this is should not be banned purely because of people's laziness. There are bigger problems in the world than you having to run for a gym class .
