[quote=Anonymous]The Hunter test for 7th is kind of an oddity in that it’s accepting such a tiny number of kids - 180 out of 3000, versus the SHSAT where it’s more like 4000 out of 20,000 - that it’s hard to believe that it’s accurately finding the “best” in that group, versus kids who happened to have a lucky or unlucky day on a couple of questions or a particularly good story for an essay response. So it makes sense that the more subjective elementary process has a higher success rate. (That being said, I don’t know what you replace it with that wouldn’t bring even more problems - maybe assign some slots through a couple of alternate pathways, e.g. lock kids in a room all day with no parents/tutors and no AI and have them write a one-act play and the best 5 plays get in)[/quote]
