[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The “standardized tests” are anything but standardized anyway. Everyone knows that. It is farcical to compare test scores from a kid who has had 20 hours of private test instruction, taken 6 practice exams and then sat the test 3 times, with a kid who took 3 in school 45 minute sessions and sat the test once when it was given for free. What the pandemic has done is show that colleges do not need standardized tests at all.[/quote] NP. We shall see. The results are a long way from evident yet, though I suspect that most of those admitted without scores will do just fine. However, that doesn't address the problem raised by the OP, from the high school student's perspective: how to help a kid know where to apply and how to categorize reaches, matches, and safeties.[/quote]
