Standardized testing

All standardized testing is trying to find the things students have learned over the year's amount of time. Almost all standardized testing is required.

I think this is a good way to review the materials for the past years. Im not a big fan of spending all the time it takes to prepare and take the tests, but it has a good meaning. A lot of times teachers look at your test scores and that way they know what to expect out of you.

If you ask any random kid in high school what they think about standardized testing, i almost guarantee they will say "its a waste of my time". How do you expect any teenager to like testing. Give us a break, its not our favorite thing to do. We have to understand that it makes an affect on our high school career, which makes an affect on our extended life. Most teens aren't going to understand that or care about this at their age now.
