<p>Does anyone’s school use ERB tests? I go to a public suburban high school and we have the “comprehensive testing program” this week. I feel like it is such a waste of time because it really doesn’t get used to determine anything at all, and it’s not even a state required tests to top it off. It doesn’t determine high school graduation, and even if to determine which students are struggling, there are not that many struggling students in my school that cannot easily be pointed out by any teacher. The test is so boring… I can hardly sit through it, especially since I know a good score will have no benefit.</p>
<p>Also, we do the writing sample tests too, but I mind these less because I’m good at them and like to get a good score back at the end.</p>
