Rubbish, I tell you, absolute rubbish! If it's not one of the 37, it might as well be Captain Underpants!
Seriously though, I'd be very curious to see how 10th graders would do if they took this test. They couldn't have been assigned them all. And in any case, having been made to read them doesn't necessarily mean that they retained a great deal. Someone who reads a book by choice might well recall more than someone who was required to read it.
