Message | Standardized test do nothing but test your ability to take a test in a certain time period. They don't properly reflect intelligence, and severely stress students out. |

Message | Unrelated to the bill but... "Standardized test do nothing but test your ability to take a test in a certain time period. " True. But if you are able to do well in something in a certain time period, then you are likely to be able to do well in it in another time period, and again, and again "They don't properly reflect intelligence" Depends on your definition of intelligence, but it would reflect their intelligence in the particular areas. "and severely stress students out." We don't want our best and brightest to not be able to handle stress and surely the ability to work under pressure is admireble. |
