I am driving to Texas, where I will be for a couple of weeks. Tonight I read an article in the New York Times entitled College Panel Call for Less Focus on SATs. In an earlier post, I suggested that high school high-stakes examinations be eliminated.  Today’s article only reaffirmed my conviction that high school should begin to move away from the use of high-stakes examinations for exit from school, especially when more than 280 colleges and universities no longer use SATs or the ACT for admission—these scores are optional. 

The article describes the work of a commission established by the National Association for College Admission Counseling.  I recommend that you follow the link above and read the article.

Does the article lend support your opinion?
