[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Back when I was growing up, in the 70's and 80's, I don't recall having one single standardized test. Back then, there were a lot more kids graduating school who could only read at an ES level, or not read at all. [/quote] Doubtful. [/quote] I guess you've never read the description of how great American schooling was in the 1970s and early 1980s, contained in the 1983 report A Nation At Risk. (to the top PP -- I took the Iowa Test of Basic Skills in the 1970s and 80s.)[/quote] See, this is what I mean.. different states had different methods of assessing readiness or achieving basic standards. This leads to disparities. I'm PP that stated I never took standard tests in school (other than SATs). I grew up in CA.[/quote]
