A Rant On Standardized Testing



Alright, so I've been taking the parcc test or End of Year exam or whatever you want to call it, and I mostly hate it.
 I mainly hate the fact that we've taken the same test in march and now we have to do it again. IT SEEMS REDUNDANT. Why do we have to take it twice? Isn't once per year enough information the state collects? The next flaw with Parcc testing is the fact that it is on the computer. This allows for increased chance of cheating and slows down the entire school network is full of lag. My last complaint is the schedule. Since everyone NEEDS a COMPUTER to take the test, we need to create lab space. The schedules are just weird and screw up every ones progress in class. Think of other schools that might not have as many machines. How will they take the test? I would much rather take the ACT to graduate than this.
