[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's both - grade inflation and test is poor - let's move for the SAT test junior year to replace the PARCC that year - SAT math section is focused on Algebra I. This will save money (no PARCC) , reduce number of t tests for students and be a true judge of what MCPS schools curriculum provided by the county is actually teaching its students.[/quote] Why would it save money to pay for the SAT test instead of the PARCC test? Also, why is the SAT test a better measure of learning in algebra in MCPS than the PARCC test or the MCPS final?[/quote] Are you serious? [b]How about colleges just look at PARCC scores and skip the SAT tests then[/b]. Colleges can ask for PARCC scores from k-12 too. Pearson would love it. This is the slippery slope with Pearson/PARCC that concerns me.[/quote] Lots of colleges do already skip the SAT.[/quote]
