Line 7:
At Fumizuki Academy, a new class system has been implemented. Students are separated into classes A through F based on entrance exam results, and the quality of classrooms and facilities vary according to level. They can also conjure Summoned Beings, miniature versions of themselves whose strengths are based on their test scores, to engage in inter-class matches called Examination Summons Battles (ESB). If a lower class defeats an upper class, the former can impose a trade of facilities.
 
Mizuki Himeji was forced to skip placement exams due to a fever, technically forcing the poor girl, who has the brains to become a Class A-caliber student, to end up in the woefully ill-equipped and ''moldy'' Class F. Among her classmates there are: Yuuji Sakamoto, the [[Brilliant but Lazy]] [[Class Representative]]; Minami Shimada, the only other girl in class and a violent tomboy; Hideyoshi Kinoshita, an extremely effeminate stage actor; Kouta Tsuchiya, the resident pervert; and Akihisa Yoshii, the "biggest idiot on campus", who out of sympathy for Mizuki, decides to start an ESB with Class A to help her climb up the ranks. It's a bunch of misfits against the world -- and the world is more than ready. It's time to see if they are... ''[[PunA Worldwide Punomenon|up to the test]]''.
 
Based on a popular series of [[Light Novels]] by Kenji Inoue(the translation of which can be found [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Baka_to_Tesuto_to_Syokanju here]), an anime version aired in the winter of 2010. While it's not animated by [[Studio Shaft]], it ''is'' directed by Shin Ohnuma, and many Shaft-isms are prevalent in the series. The first season is 13 episodes and finished airing on March 31, 2010. A second season began airing in the [[Summer 2011 Anime]]. There are also two manga adaptations.
