“Sometimes the most brilliant and intelligent students do not shine on standardized test because they do not have standardized minds.” once stated Diane Ravitch. Should students take standardized tests? They shouldn't because it doesn't show what you learn, it makes students stress out, and it takes up too much time during class. First of all, standardized tests gets you ready for college or a job. Like if you go for a job interview they will look at your background to see if you are responsible or not. For example when you go to college they will ask you what is your IQ or what is your average in each class, and once again they will look at your background to see if you are responsible or not. So we need standardized tests for that reason.
