@LadyMeowMeow I don’t need to know any studies. Surrounding by Asian Americans (of course being one myself) and seeing many of our youths starting preparation of SAT tests in 7th and 8th grades whole summer and throughout their school years. Also recently read many free-Chinese papers reporting the Asian American groups’ lawsuit against Harvard’s holistic system. I haven’t see any other groups (yes by individuals, but not an ethnic group) suing the Harvard. Yes, its my opinion, but it is also my own experience. Having growing up in an Asian country with higher education system all based on test scores, I would rather the U.S. higher education will never ever become like that. I believe you are entitled to your opinion and I am entitled to mine, and thanks God, this is a free country.
