This article gives a student view on preparing for standardized testing. They began the article discussing the state of Texas, which just recently passed a bill to reduce the number of tests students have to take to earn a diploma from 15 to 5. They also talked about reducing the number of years for high schoolers to take Math and Science from four years to three years. [Big mistake, in my opinion, to reduce these subjects at all]. Surprisingly the kids that commented on this blog believe that students do not take these tests serious enough and could study MORE. Some even went as far to say that schools should prepare the kids better and do more practices to get them ready. WOW! Very interesting read....I included the link below in case anyone is interested. Thanks for reading!
