Late 80's book about kids surviving on another planet without any supplies (not Tunnel in the Sky)
The Next CEO of Stack OverflowTitle of a book about a mysterious light in the sky from the late 90s?'80s book about kids stranded on a planetSurvival training and test, like Tunnel in the Sky or Rite of Passage, but not!Looking for a fantasy book about two kids that get transported to another worldA book about the Roman Empire surviving to modern timesBook about a man in a hot air balloon, passes out and wakes up on another planetBook about kid from another planet being hidden on earthI'm looking for a book about 5 kids with powers?Book about training for and surviving on a deadly planetBook about a dying planet that prohibited marriage between the 3 races living on the planet
I have done lots of searching and never found it. This site pointed me to Tunnel in the Sky but that isn't it. I have very vague memories of the book and heck it might have been terrible but I know I liked it in the 6th or 7th grade!
I remember that it involved a class or group of kids having to take a final on another planet by surviving without any supplies. The environment I don't think was supposed to actually kill anyone but it did with lethal animals and such. The hero kid managed to survive and some foil the plot. As sad as this is I do remember something about him and the girl that fought with him making love in zero g as one of the lines near the end or at the end.

It sounds a bit like Rite of Passage by Alexei Panshin. First published in 1968.
from the Amazon link:
In 2198, one hundred and fifty years after the desperate wars that
destroyed an overpopulated Earth, Man lives precariously on a hundred
hastily-established colony worlds and in the seven giant Ships that
once ferried men to the stars. Mia Havero's Ship is a small closed
society. It tests its children by casting them out to live or die in a
month of Trial in the hostile wilds of a colony world. Mia Havero's
Trial is fast approaching and in the meantime she must learn not only
the skills that will keep her alive but the deeper courage to face
herself and her world.

To be honest its been at least twenty years since I read it and all I remember is a group of kids having to survive for a period of time on an unfamiliar planet. When I saw this question it sounded familiar and I did some googling and came up with that link. Its the book I remember but whether its the book the OP is looking for I don't know.

The protagonist of Rite of Passage is female, which seems to differ from the work being asked about.

The sexes are reversed, but otherwise near spot-on. Mia and Jimmy hook up on-planet just before rescue, and at the end of the book, in the epilogue five years later, they head home to bed. No zero-gee sex though.

I remembering reading a book written by Monica Hughes in 1990 called Invitation to the Game that sounds similar.
Lisse and her seven friends are unemployed after graduating from a respected private school, and are assigned to live as a group in an abandoned warehouse in a Designated Area (DA)....
One day the group get invited to "The Game", which turns out to be a virtual-reality full-world simulation .... This simulation is based in an outdoor environment and the aim seems to be survival in this different climate....
They realize that The Game was a kind of training program meant to prepare the group- and others like them- for an off-world colony project ....

I just had the same (or similar book) pop into my head as well that I wanted to find.
I think the main character had an incident to where during the survival trip she lost her main weapon and encountered a creature that had she had her primary, she would have tried to fight it only to find she would have been killed. But because she only had a knife on her she had to run away and survived the encounter.
I think in the story the connection to the main origin planet was severed and the kids had to survive on their own.
There was a species of creatures that were small they had to fight to stay alive.
Really trying to remember more but it was about 20ish years ago.

I just had the same (or similar book) pop into my head as well that I wanted to find.
I think the main character had an incident to where during the survival trip she lost her main weapon and encountered a creature that had she had her primary, she would have tried to fight it only to find she would have been killed. But because she only had a knife on her she had to run away and survived the encounter.
I think in the story the connection to the main origin planet was severed and the kids had to survive on their own.
There was a species of creatures that were small they had to fight to stay alive.
Really trying to remember more but it was about 20ish years ago.
