[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the love of God. Abolish the SAT already. It’s absurd the amount of wasted time and money people spend trying to score well on the test. Unless it’s the top Ivies, it truly does not matter at all. The amount of hoop jumping and “me I’m unique and special” essays and activities and test scoring nonsense is insane and not useful. There are families not willing to play this game anymore.[/quote] I do think there's too much stress put on getting a high score, but I also think it's good to have some kind of standard scoring occuring in junior/senior year. there are kids who develop later in HS (mainly boys but some girls too) and it's nice to have something that can counter grade 9 or 10 gpa. I personally think they should abolish grade 9 gpa. who cares how they did at 14 given how much their brains and skills are changing and developing by 18![/quote]
