It's only a rat race because you decided it is.

You haven't answered the question if private employers should be required to assign jobs by test scores.

no I didn’t decide that - my kids will go to college abroad. Not in a million years would i allow them through this insanity. nevertheless the system is extremely destructive for American society. It doesn’t really matter whose fault is that - just what can be done about it. These so called elite instructions of learning - in reality hedge funds and country clubs with a smidgen of scholarship - needs to be drastically reformed and quickly.

employers should not be required to hire by test scores, except for maybe government. There are jobs that need to be done. Universities merely issue certificates and the way the system is set now these certificates are misleading.[/quote]

Now I know you are a troll.

"I didn't decide it was a rat race" even though I am calling it that

"employers should not be required to hire by test scores, but universities should, because universities are how people "make connections" to join the rich on wall street"  Dude then just cut out the middleman and make wall street give out those jobs based on scores.  But no, that would be stupid.

you are dumb. what was your SAT again?

wall street is mostly connections with a few smart kids funneled through elite colleges.[/quote]

Lol.  You can insult me all you want, it means nothing.  I'll stick to the discussion of the points.

Assuming what you say about wall street is true (and it isn't) then answer my question, why not just cut out the middleman and give out those jobs based on scores?

(Since you won't answer, I will.  It's because it would be a disastrous failure for any company that did that.)[/quote]
