UC Berkeley Chancellor Carol T. Christ and UC Provost Michael Brown said at
a forum on college admissions Friday that research has convinced them that
performance on the SAT and ACT is so strongly influenced by family income,
parents’ education and race that using them for high-stakes admissions
decisions is simply wrong.
“They really contribute to the inequities of our system,” Christ said at
the Berkeley forum, sponsored by the Policy Analysis for California
Education research center and the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Education.
Brown said he was not opposed to all standardized tests but objects to tests
like the SAT and ACT because their results compare students against one
another in a way designed to produce high and low scores. He prefers
standardized tests that measure students by how much they’ve mastered
prescribed academic content. One such test is Smarter Balanced, which is
used in California to assess 11th-graders on the state’s Common Core
curriculum, but Brown said he would prefer a test more closely linked to the
content of courses required for UC admission.

没SAT的时候哈佛只从几所牛英格兰最有名的prep school录取。 |
