ACT Scores hit a 30 year Low

But, but, I thought that test scores don’t mean anything, and that they’re inherently biased because not all subgroups have the same overall achievement on them, that they’re totally meaningless? Then how could a low score on a standardized test possibly mean that the students’ learning was disrupted by Covid? Does that mean that someone besides MIT (where they need the engineers to have proven that they know how to do at least a little bit of math) still believes that a low standardized test score might mean that the student hasn’t mastered the material taught in high school?
