#College #SAT #Testing

They test how well your child is as a test taker, that's it. It doesn't give colleges, post-secondary establishments, etc. a true sense of what your child truly knows, what he/she knows (i.e. test anxiety can impact how well a child can do). In my opinion, I think students should develop a portfolio that provides a true sense of who they are and what they know.
College is becoming obsolete anyways. Everyone has a degree, which makes it useless.
Seems like CollegeBoard realizes this and is going digital for financial incentive.
I didn’t have to take Sat.
sounds like more cheating
So, no more being shamed for not having a finely sharpened #2 pencil…
It seems like a lot of trouble to just waste money and go back home and live with Mommy.
Digital? So what if a student login in and just have someone else take the test for them.
Any updates on the transgender shooter in Texas? Just curious what demographics did these KC shooters represent?
