[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]lol...UCLA makes it illegal to use SAT in admissions.  This post is dumb[/quote]

[b]The UC system got sued and test blind was the result - it wasn’t UCLA’s decision. [/quote][/b]

False.  The regents decreed it - even though it went against their own research findings. "In May 2020, the UC Regents voted to phase out admissions tests by 2025, against the recommendations of UC's own Standardized Testing Task Force (STTF; University of California Academic Senate, 2020)."

The Regents want to be able to engage in more social engineering than testing would allow.

Wrong- there was a settlement and a part of it was an agreement not to use standardized testing 21-25 https://publiccounsel.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Smith-v-UC-Regents_SETTLEMENT-AGREEMENT.pdf .  Now that the settlement prohibition is expiring the Regent's have been considering bringing testing requirements back and if you read the minutes it is pretty obvious that Cal and UCLA want to bring it back.   In addition they do accept AP scores which has been the work around for past several years.   [/quote]
