[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Great news. [/quote] How is it great? Benefits some kids, hurts others. Same number will attend. Who cares?[/quote] It is great because they based their decision on data/research, not just doing what everyone thinks should be done. These standardized tests are a huge money drain, especially if you include the whole prep industry. It is also a way that the playing field is kept uneven for rich and poor kids. [/quote] What? Their own research substantiated the use of standardized tests for admissions. https://www.ucop.edu/institutional-research-academic-planning/_files/sat-act-study-report.pdf[/quote]
