Bill: Standardized Tests, January 2469
Details
Submitted by[?]: Indralan Council for Universal Democracy
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: March 2470
Description[?]:
Tests are not an accurate measurement, and neither are grades necessarily. There are ways of cheating the system and playing a numbers game to get ahead without being better. As a result, a lot of people are ending up in top jobs in Indrala who really don't deserve it. This should change. Not only this, but the world is not as perfect as a theory on paper. To last long and for Indrala to prosper, we need creative people with creative solutions. |
