What´s Standardized Testing Effective?

Many people know all about “standardized tests”. This was an issue for me, at first I was not very alluring to the idea of standardized tests, I felt that standardized test were a tedious subject, something that no one really wanted to listen or learn about; since many already know about standardized test.

Now they are tests that assess a student's growth, but they should still be limited, since they also have negative effects. Working with a group also helped and benefited me, I was able to think in another way and comprehend the argument in a better
