[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow in my day (I'm old!) that would would be going T20![/quote] Totally agree. Is it that the scoring is somehow different, so more kids obtain a 1300/1400+ score, or is it that kids have had increasingly better test preparation? Probably a combination of both. [/quote] Tests are way frigg'n easier today than 20-30 years ago. For one, they removed the gat dang analogies and all highly arcane vocabulary from what used to be called the SAT-Verbal when it was actually hard.[/quote] :roll: Removing arcane words and deciding to focus on more meaningful standards doesn't make it easier.[/quote] It seems a lot easier to prep for the test and basically game the system. 1400 could get you into any school not so long ago. Now you've got to get as close to 1600 as possible. Insane. And it's a stupid test. It doesn't measure creativity or analytical thinking, for starters. It should disappear. [/quote]
