As person who did very well on his standardized tests, I can assure you it has no use or application in the real academic setting. Sorry for disagreeing with you here, but while I think they’re good as scholarship baselines in which students have a goal to work towards and are rewarded for working hard to achieve that goal, they serve as a very poor measurement for the academic prestige of a university. What I was trying to say is that there needs to be a paradigm shift in the collegiate ranking system towards rewarding colleges who provide a diverse environment with many opportunities to succeed after college. The who sat ranking system makes individuals believe that Chemistry at Ohio State is harder than Chemistry at Alabama, when in reality that’s simply not the case. Students need to be taught to go to the school which is the best fit for them financially and environmentally because if the status quo is upheld student loan debts are only going to increase and students won’t pick their favorite college, but rather one which had a different number on a paper than another one. Idk, just my two cents
