[quote=Anonymous]This is a terrible story that doesn't even remotely take into account a much bigger effort afoot to strengthen high school curriculum ESPECIALLY for kids who are not on a college path. Other states also require the ACT for all HS grads -- the ACT is more of a curriculum test so it is probably a better measure of what a kid knows compared to the SAT. There's no standard method for assessing kids who are not college bound but can be steered into certain fields based on their more narrow academic strengths. Seriously, if you're obsessing about college you should at least know the nuts and bolts of the broader higher education landscape, especially the huge changes afoot in standardized testing. [/quote]
