[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. The fact that a test is "objective" doesn't mean that it measures something I would want to know or a characteristic that will lead to a better school. I went to college with kids from Stuyvesant, Bronx Science, Boston Latin etc. They are doing fine, but they don't have better careers or larger contributions to society than the kids who went to non selective high schools.[/quote] Does DC have “non-selective high schools” where going to college is the norm? And don’t say Wilson, since you need to select that one by buying your way in to the most expensive part of DC. The issue here is since we are already being selective, tests are more fair than GPA and interviews. [/quote]
