Do Standardized Tests Matter?

Do standardized tests matter

Instead of a blog post, here is a podcast, an op-ed, and a TV clip to answer whether standardized tests matter to colleges (even to so-called “test-blind” colleges), and, if so, how much.

If you want all the info with details and nuance, choose the podcast: “College Admissions and Test Scores.”

If you want the general info, choose the op-ed: “Your A Student is Average — Don’t Blame the SAT and ACT.”

If you want soundbite answers, choose the 4-minute TV clip: “Testing and College Admissions.”

Or feel free to check out all three. 🙂

Feel free to reach out to us anytime as well with any questions on the SAT®, the ACT®, academic subjects, college admissions, etc. It is always our pleasure to help.

We were lucky enough to be referred to David at Summit Prep! My son enjoyed working with David as he felt that he really helped him prepare for the ACT. He explained concepts covered on the test as well as the test itself. My son felt confident taking the test and did so well that he only had to take it once!

David helped me improve my SAT from a 1480 to a 1570 over the course of about 2 months. Each session made me feel more and more confident.

Eva took on an almost impossible task and seriously worked a miracle! We found out we were moving, and our son had to take the ISEE exam asap. From his practice test to the exam, his scores went up exponentially. We give her 5 enthusiastic stars!

All three of my children have used Summit Prep for their test prep and, I believe, reached their full potential as a result of the outstanding guidance of David and Ryan. His ongoing support went above and beyond. Many thanks!
