[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They need to end retakes completely. It's an unfair demand on teachers and it makes GPAs meaningless.[/quote] Everyone on here crying about retakes are the same people who have their kids take the SAT/ACT 2+ times to improve and/or superscore. Is the score meaningless? Now watch them twist themselves into knots to justify it. [/quote] I'm not anti-retakes, at least for certain grades. But I do think the policy of letting kids scoreup to 100% on retakes, rather than 80 or 90% is entirely unworkable for teachers and creates more anxiety and pressure and kids that will retake a low A just to get a higher A. [/quote] SAT/ACT should say you only get 1 chance but if you score below 1340 or 29 you can retake once, but only up to 1340 or 29. [/quote]
