The document below is also from the CC website.  Apparently it is true that standards were adopted BEFORE they were reviewed.  Look at the timeline.  The vast majority of strates adopted it in 2010 (June 2010 to be precise).  That was the very month they were released.  Even CC cites 2011 as being a year when the states reviewed them (AFTER THEY HAD ALREADY ADOPTED THEM).

CCSSO and NGA request states’ feedback on a revised draft of the K-12 grade by grade college and career readiness standards. Several independent reviews of the standards begin.

[b]JUNE 2010
NGA and CCSSO release the final Common Core State Standards.[/b]
CCSSO and NGA release report summarizing the work of the validation committee, which reviewed the standards and found them:
Reflective of the core knowledge and skills in ELA and mathematics that students need to be college- and career-ready;
Appropriate in terms of their level of clarity and specificity;
Comparable to the expectations of other leading nations;
Informed by available research or evidence;
The result of processes that reflect best practices for standards development;
A solid starting point for adoption of cross-state common core standards; and
A sound basis for eventual development of standards-based assessments.

States and territories undergo their own processes for reviewing, adopting, and (in some states) ratifying the adoption of the Common Core State Standards. In each case, after reviewing the new standards, state boards of education members, governors, legislators, and/or chief state school officers took action to replace their existing standards with the Common Core State Standards.[/b]
