California scrapped the SAT because the test unfairly favored white students, and now they want it back

https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/06/standardized-testing-math-gaps/687481/?gift=5Dp2UvKq0OSYK01jTp4W3alSvZZsn-IIlN6MHxE_eWY

University professors are complaining that over 25% of their class cannot follow basic coursework or learn fast enough. One in twelve students even struggle with middle school math. As a result, faculty members are writing letters calling to bring back the SAT.

Supporters see tests such as the SAT as objective measures of academic preparation, allowing comparison among students no matter how varied their actual schooling. But critics see it as a symbol of oppression that exemplifies inequalities in the country

California schools are a joke. They curve grades and cheat to make the education system look good. My kids were A/B students in a deep red state, but got straight A's in California with little effort. They actually got worse because they didn't have to write cursive or read analog clocks, etc... We ended up moving back

In addition, the company I worked for like to hire people from UC Davis, but after a few years, it became clear that none of them knew what they were doing. They didn't understand things they should know from a 100 level class. It was so bad they made it a policy not to take resumes from California universities

Is the sat or act more valued? I only ever took the act. I took the practice test high as fuck and got a 33, but a 32 on the real one

Now that college enrollment is dropping, schools are scrambling to rebuild the trust and reputations they lost when they pandered to the lowest common denominator for money.

come to oakland. they stopped giving D's and F's because those grades are racist. suddenly all the niggers are C students

it's too late anyway. Any attempt to reverse course is just gonna get called racist.

Only a minority of whites even get good scores, wtf

california schools are mostly run by middle aged liberal white women. they have decided that the only goal is to help the lowest common denominator of students succeed (get through school), at the expense of the top end. this has a few outcomes

1. top kids aren’t getting pushed to grow
2. private schools are booming for this reason. public schools near me can’t fill classrooms, have split grade classes, while private has many year waitlist
3. the bottom kids get through and finish school but are dumb as fuck

thank you “equity” pushers. you dumb fucks have just watered down our country with idiots. i fucking hate you. all because you thought white and asian kids did too good

the answer is to go into self-employment providing residential services. the retards are too stupid to handle any aspect of their lives. you can charge them $225 to change a fucking light switch and now quickbooks has affirm so they can literally go into debt paying me

Smarties aint affected by equity crap since the work is even easier for them. All equity crap does is prove white IQ supremacy

I think every single fucking thing about niggers being victims is a lie.
>it favored White people
Occam's razor dictates niggers are just retarded and the SAT was nerfed for them on purpose to stick them into places they do not belong on account of their violent retardation.

Most nigs dont do their classwork even if the teacher gives them the answers. Niggers fail by their own merit.

>>536923658
No niggers just couldn't do the bare minimum so the standards were brought down, just like IQ scores themselves were tweaked to favor niggers since 80% of niggers were officially retarded.
>>
>>536922164
>exemplifies inequalities
That's.... the point. You're supposed to discriminate between smart people and retards because this whole process is to determine who is most fit to perform jobs with a lot of required expertise or responsibility. The goal is to weed out retards. That's what the entire education system is supposed to do. Smart people will always find a way to educate themselves and become competent, but retards are being falsely elevated to the same paper qualifications.

I was a teacher and tutor in the bay area for 9 years. I have heard this tired line endlessly from niggers and spics and nigger and spic apologists.

Notice how they intentionally exclude asians from this racist headline...despute asians making up the majority of students getting specialized and expensive Act/sat tutoring.

When they say it favors white students what they are really saying is it favors kids who dont cone feom broke nigger spic homes who cannot afford the extra education you honestly do meed to do well on these hard tests.

Southern schools are fine for the most part. The problem is the only way to compare schools in one area to those of another is to measure academic outcomes.

If you compare schools in New England where the students are 90% white and 5% black to schools in the south where students are 50% white and 40% black... If your conclusion from the disparity in outcomes between those two is that schools in the south are bad... You might be a retard.

You are a fucking stupid piece of shit and misspelled an easy word while flexing how smart you are.
Pathetic, this angry reply you wrote bleeds with your embarrassment.
Guess you arent that smart after all.

the only place your children will learn cursive or reading analog clocks is in private elementary. the public schools won't do analog clocks because they're racist because nignogs cant understand a pointer being between two numbers

There is a distinct part of me that craves the traditional university experience, specifically executed within the cultural and technological paradigm of the late twentieth century. It is difficult to articulate precisely, but I mean pursuing a degree in a manner that is fundamentally slower, more deliberate, and intellectually rigorous.

this, if asians outperform whites on tests is that racist? kek

>>536925707
Exactly. Asians and whited should start the ethnostate already. All other races excluded. Asians need to be taught how to treat animals and the environment better, they can teach us how to make ev's.

The first 2 years of college should be general studies and then you should have to pass a proctored exam to get into specific academic programs that are 2-4 years in length. Of course literally no niggers or poos could pass a STEM exam so this will never happen.

>>536923839
The interesting thing is, the tests were a defense against the thing the "test removers" claimed they were against. Having a standardized test performs two important tasks:
>An anchor against grade inflation
Without a standardized national metric, high school GPAs skyrocketed. A "4.0 GPA" ceased to mean mastery. Professors are now finding that a number of straight-A students lack foundational math skills because their grades were artificially inflated by lenient high school standards.
>An objective leveller
Ironically, the SAT was originally popularized to find brilliant, underprivileged students from underfunded schools who didn't have access to flashy extracurriculars or expensive private school grading curves. Tearing down the fence actually hurt many minority and low-income students, because admissions officers fell back on subjective measures (like hyper-polished essays and elite extracurricular activities) that are even easier for wealthy families to game.

The SAT was a imperfect tool used to solve an even worse problem (subjective, corruptible admissions). But, in attempting to solve a less-worse problem, they brought back the even worse problem while not solving the problem they wanted to initially solve.
>>
>>536927316
Here is my solution.

Highschool can end after grade 10. If a student is not going to go to university, they can leave after grade 10. They will not be considered a drop out, but just as someone who will not go to university. Instead, they can take up a trade (apprenticeship), do into the family business, whatever. That leaves Grade 11 & 12 to be used for university prep. The "general studies" you mentioned. And then, when they arrive in university, they can enter their specific program, and waste no more time with broad education.

Why is there white flight from towns where asians move in?
>>
>>536927373
I am sorry to break your delusions about our society but money is and has always been and will always be powerful.

The invention of the race stuff was all to distract from the objective reality that the system truly is only about access for those who can afford it.

This reality hits hard at some point for all humans, but if enough people were to realize it all at once, everyone would just drive into the wealthiest neighborhoods in America and the UK and France and Monaco and Seitzerland and Tel Aviv and Moscow and Berlin where the celebs live, where the rappers and basketball players are, where the C suite and execs live and have penthouses and just absolutely go Robespierre on everyone.

They have to tell you this all though, in so many words and in so many ways of course, that is part of their code. It absolves them from guilt and responsibility. Like a chicken slaughtered to subsume the sins of the year.

>>536930040
Asians ruin the neighborhood bevause it is all chinese businessmen hiding their money from the ccp gooks. Also fuck indians. Property values are entirely jacked in the bay just because of you h1b fags. You shouldnt feel safe in public. We don't.

Who cares Sukdeep, I don't see you people building your statues of your shit gods in California, the Mexicans won't let you. Also in California we can still call out the jew and not get arrested for it, how's THAT going in MIGA STATE?

>>536923658
The tests were specifically designed so that ONLY white students would do well on them and non-whites, no matter how smart they be, couldn't ever do well on them. Regatta, mother fucker.

The SAT is accepted by pretty much every school but the ACT is somewhat limited to the southeast and the midwest. If you want to go to an SEC or Big Ten school (excluding the west coast newbies), the ACT likely will be fine.
