I crushed the ACT in the face. Did not finish near the top of my class though.
Rural schools are easier than urban schools, so we have to have standardized tests so colleges know who to accept.

I mean, there has been a lot of discussion about a bunch of ppl that used to have jobs that don't now due to automation and moving them out of country. One way to get ppl like that back into good paying jobs would be free secondary ed. Then you have more ppl with the ability to earn more than $12/hr providing better lives for those ppl, more places where employers can take advantage of a higher educated source of labor, higher tax rev for the govt(local and fed), less drain on entitlements, etc.Public ed was organized in our country to help ppl be better employees. It seems like a logical next step would be public college ed given that the new factory job is not putting crap together, but rather keeping the robot that puts crap together running well. Sure, that isn't as fist-pump-eff-yeah friendly, but it is logical. I think free trade school would be a better use of government funds.

I know several ppl who finished near the top of their class, but tested poorly. It's whatever. Looks like it makes Mir and KK happy, so I'm happy for them.

Looks like it makes Mir and KK happy, so I'm happy for them.I know people like that too... but none of them actually scored as low as a 17 either.Explains a lot about your political views actually. You value "hard work" over the right ideas or solutions, can't handle complex concepts or theories... Rather, you prefer simple explanations and "common knowledge", and think everyone should just pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
Small schools are easier than big schools, so we have to have standardized tests so colleges know who to accept.
