The Final Test was the final step that a Padawan had to take in their journey to Knighthood. It consisted of a one-on-one duel between the Padawan and their own Jedi Master. The difficulty of this test, and the way it was scored varied from one student to another, because of the fact that the test was different for each Padawan.
The Final Test was developed by the founding Jedi High Council of the Reformed Jedi Order as a method of ensuring that only the best of the best advanced to the Knighting Ceremony. If a student failed the Final Test they were allowed to try again. However; if the student displayed any anger or overly aggressive behavior during the duel the student in question would have to undergo a trial by the Jedi Council to determine whether or not they would be allowed to retake the Final Test.
