Is this the New Norm?

Yes, they do, and that is a good thing for the UC system to do. But it has little to do whether top programs like MIT ( the original subject) should use standardized test scores in addition to grades and other indicia in admissions. MIT states it is helpful to them, and schools which are like MIT probably agree. As my earlier post noted, such scores may not be needed for other majors or less selective programs.
Do many CC students get accepted to engineering majors at UCLA? Since you mention UCLA, I note they have 8 different math major tracks-some for highly abstract students, and some for future 7-12 grade teachers. That works for them.
