In America, we didn't have to truley memorize it. For tests we had a reference packet that included the table.

That being said we did have to memorize a few major ones.

Its also important to recognize education is a state by state thing, not federal. The curriculum in Texas can be different than the one in Florida. Even teacher to teacher, I could see one class having to memorize it while the one next door doesn't.

In my highschool we had an English teacher who was super into the Beatles. Like "the second half of the year was literally just learning about the Beatles and it made up like 60% of your grade". I used to like listening to them but not so much after that year. To this day I don't know how they got away with that
