Im with Louis on this... Its wrong to test kids like this. I always had a hard time with standardized tests, but when I was a kid there were less of them and they didnt run our lives. My mom is a public school teacher (music!!!) and I have watched the tests/days of testing multiply... Most teachers just want to teach! There are many different types of intelligence in the world so there need to be different ways to teach and test concepts... We would do better to teach empathy and spend more time on sports and the arts in schools. Math can be taught creatively too, and not just as scary test preparation... Good luck to all the kids taking this, and to their parents! Remember- this stuff doesnt define anybody!
