I got 20800 Reputation at the end of the test. I guess there weren't joking about 'joining' the Argent Dawn.
I couldn't find the right spot for the life of me. I thought the quest was broken, which wouldn't be surprising....but there was a level I couldn't see. If you get stuck like me, go into one of those rooms on the left or right of the stairs and turn around until you find another opening, go through that and you'll find more stairs down. It can be easy to miss!

What to do
Description
Behind our chapel, you will find a small crypt. Interred within are the bodies of our fallen heroes; those who gave their lives in the war against the Scourge. Their spirits are at peace, but they return intermittently to test new members of the order. The three of you may test together. Enter the crypt, then read from this scroll. Lord Raymond George - my predecessor - will preside over your test.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Boyhood Dream
I've always wanted to join the Crusade. It's the reason I became a paladin. Years of practice, honing my craft... I'm finally ready. Tarenar thinks he's ready, too, but I'm not sure. He's a bit of a showboat, and he never took his lessons seriously.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Argent Call: The Noxious Glade
Browman's Mill, to the north, is infested with undead. The Noxious Glade, even farther to the north, is even more heavily infested. Despite their proximity to our chapel, we have been unable to completely remove them. Vigilance is key.
