    Compare And Contrast Universities And Community Colleges

    First of all, the admission requirements are game changer to many students when they are deciding to stay at home to study at a community college or to go away to study at a university. Typically, a university will have higher admission requirements because students have the opportunity to obtain higher degrees than at a community college. As a result, the universities will admit students with high academic knowledge; ultimately, they will have higher graduation rates. Many students choose to attend a community college because the requirements are usually lower. At the end of the day, it does not matter which school these students wish to attend, but they must fulfill the requirements before being accepted at a community college or a university.…

    Secondly, Murray announces that the meaning of SAT has changed. As Murray states “Originally, the point of the SAT-whose initials, after all, stood for Scholastic Aptitude Test” and “College Board abandoned aptitude altogether and changed the name of the SAT to “Scholastic Assessment Test,” the meaning has changed even though the initials are still “SAT.” Aptitude means “inherent ability,” but in the 1960s, the concept of aptitude has changed because the “temper of the times be interpreted as the fault of the tests that produced them.” It showed ethic and class differences, and it was favored of upper-middle-class white kids, which cannot be a good test.…

    Should SAT Be Used For College Admissions Essay

    Before even getting to the components of the test, first lets take into account the fact that a lot of people out there do not have enough money for tutors or books who really need them for preparation. A lot of other people hire tutors or get a lot of books to prepare them well and therefore the preparation itself just went through an unfair process. Secondly, the test is timed and we all work at different paces. There are those of us who can read really fast and get all the information down fast but there are those of us who cant read as fast but can still get down all the information very well. There are those of us who can quickly think about how to format an essay but there are those of us who need more time are can still write a great essay. Therefore, the fact that it is timed definitely factors in to not being able to truly indicate how smart the student really is. The SAT is also very culturally biased in the way that there are many people out there who come to the United States late in their school career and barely know any English and are all of a sudden expected to have a great English vocabulary and great English reading skills just to have a chance to go to college. Once again, another reason the SAT does not truly determine the intelligence of the…

    Arguments Against Standardized Testing Research

    When asked what she thought of tests such as the SAT, she said "I think the SAT is good for students who want to pursue an education in areas relating to math, science, or reading, but as far as people like me who wanted to pursue a career in art, the test was pointless yet I still had to take it to get in to college." It is true that no standardized test to date scores people on their artistic abilities. One might argue that the SAT is required because if you cannot do well on that, then you obviously don't have all the knowledge it takes to be a productive citizen. However, a student cannot graduate with failing grades in all of their classes. Teacher responds with, "therefore, why does a student who plans on majoring in Art have to know how to divide the square root of x by the absolute value of seven times forty-three? It just doesn't really make a whole lot of sense to me." It might sound funny, but I believe this to be very true. I too do not understand why a student that is one hundred percent sure that they want to major in an art related field has to take the SAT's to be able to get in to a good…

    Standardized Testing Persuasive Essay

    As a Senior applying to colleges, I have taken both the ACT and SAT multiple times. And I hate them. And it's not just because I have to get up early on a Saturday morning. But whoever created these tests surely isn't a teenager who loves their sleep. But that's beside the point. In today's society, they have become too important of a factor in the college admission process. They have the potential to be the only thing that prevents one from getting into a school of their dreams. Therefore, standardized tests, including the ACT and SAT, shouldn’t be as important in the college admission process as they currently are.…

    What Are The Flaws Of Standardized Testing

    Since being implemented into school curriculum more than fifty years ago, standardized testing has become the most prevalent form of comparing and ranking students across the nation and around the globe. Although standardized testing occurs in the majority of first-world countries around the world, The United States has received the brunt of public criticism for their overuse and excessive difficulty of the tests. Most American students begin state-wide or nation-wide assessments in elementary school and continue all the way through junior high and high school, culminating with perhaps two of the most well-known standardized tests, the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and the American College Testing (ACT). The tests can cause severe stress and…
