[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes just apply to schools just base admissions on test scores and nothing else. The students would find their best fit.[/quote] [b] What if the schools want some kids who know where commas go[/b]? The tests don't really evaluate that these days. What do colleges do about important areas of academic knowledge not in the tests?[/quote] Computers can put commas in the right places, computers can do mathematical computations, computers can retrieve facts, dates, numbers. If that's what your kid is trained to do why bother? It's like training a young artist to paint photo-realistically, like a camera. What's the point? Harvard doesn't need to admit robots, cameras or computers.[/quote]
