[quote=Anonymous]My kids and I (35 years ago) both have friends who were excellent, smart and hard working students and did not score well on the SAT test. Your statement about rigor in courses being evaluated by correlating standardized test scores only has merit if you evaluate the student body on the whole that way - meaning if the average act score is 32 of the students at the high school who have 4.5 gpa’s. Even then, there is a lot of bias in standardized testing and schools with student bodies where parents are wealthy and colleged educated are going to score better. That doesn’t mean the 4.5 gpa’s there were earned via more rigorous classes. [/quote]
