Colonel Folsom. Yes. The high school "GED" test covers five areas. One, English literature; two, English composition; three, social sciences; four, physical sciences; five, mathematics.
Mr. Ely. Is it the case that those five that you have just read off were read in the same order as they are numbered on the score sheet?
Colonel Folsom. Yes. The battery is administered in the sequence in which it appears on the report.
Mr. Ely. And am I correct in asserting that on this test Oswald received a rating of satisfactory?
Colonel Folsom. This is correct. I believe USAFI rates as satisfactory or unsatisfactory.
Mr. Ely. Right.
Well, that is not entirely clear. We have a rating code printed in the lower right-hand corner.
Colonel Folsom. Well, they have two passing ones—satisfactory, and "D" with distinction, and "U", unsatisfactory.
Mr. Ely. So he could have received a higher rating than he did?
Colonel Folsom. This is correct.
