Geocache Description:

Are You Smarter Than A Jedi Padawan?



Every year thousands of younglings from hundreds of different worlds travel to Coruscant in hope of being accepted to train at the Jedi Academy. You are an inhabitant of the planet Coruscant. With a population of nearly 1 trillion, Coruscant is the most populated planet in the galaxy and as such has the highest competition for entrance into the Jedi Academy. Although your father was a Jedi Master, you receive no special treatment and are required to pass the Jedi Padawan entrance exams required of all prospective students. No prospective students can gain entrance to the Jedi Academy without first passing the tests.
