[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can always try to get your kid into Cambridge or Oxford if you think that system is better. The rest of the world is trying to get access to the American educational institutions because our univerisities are considered the gold standard. Most top schools in the world are American and have holistic admissions. It’s so odd that foreigners come to America for education or job opportunities and then are furious that our educational system does not follow the rigid testing structure that forced them to leave in the first place. They come for the opportunity in America but want to change it to a rigid testing culture. [/quote]

Well I am the poster who made the point about the ceiling effect of our national tests and I am an American so I am not sure what made you assume I was a foreigner

In any case I will admit that I am a professor at a top 20 university and value academic accomplishment in my students.  And also I have written test questions for national tests and understand the psychometric criteria used in constructing national test instruments.
