[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s start a petition. No time limit. Hand in. You’re done. Speed is not an indicator of academic success. So it’s a worthless metric. And they don’t even take not of what time a student hands in the test anyway. [/quote] +1. But then someone would need to write a test where speed wasn't a significant differentiator at the top end of the scale.[/quote] About 10% of the test should be designed so challenging that only those who master the material will be able to do them correctly. Also, the time allotted should be reasonable (as an example, 1.5 times or 2.0 times what it is today. This time is the same for all and no extra time allowed for anyone). Also, limit the test taking to three times and either superscore or take the best of the three scores. [/quote]
