And if you did what class grade/year would it had happened? What decade (if your comfortable sharing)?

I am wondering how many people actually did this and from what locations/ages/years it would have happened. For my education (American elementary-college years 2000’s-2010’s) I never had to do that. I feel like I had to be common enough that it is referenced in movies and tv shows.

Yeah we had to do it in junior school (so between 9-11) but never did at secondary school. I was in junior school early 2000s in UK.

I could never do it and didn't really see the point. Plus it always hurt my hands.
