The SATs

What. the. hell. is. the. point.One test that is supposed to summarize your standing as a learner. BUT HOW? How can one test, the only tests your knowledge of math and English be a good indicator of your learning ability. It makes no kind of sense. Not only are you stressed about finishing a test...that is designed to not be finished. Insane. Also, this test is supposed to be one that you DON'T study for, yet there is a whole industry dedicated to the studying of the SATs. Books. Tutors. Classes. It's nonsense. This brings me to another point, this test does not accurately test your knowledge, but might test just how wealthy you are. If you have the money to spend on study books, tutors, or classes, there is an unfair advantage to those who don't. For, what they teach you in those books and classes is strategy. Strategies for figuring words you don't know;. Strategies for writing a top notch SAT essay. And strategies about how to finish the SAT. People who can not afford these luxuries are probably just as smart as their peers, but because they have not been able to have exposure to these lessons, their SAT scores would not reflect their finest work, and not reflect their actual intelligence. This  hinders ones chance into getting into the school of their choice when applying for colleges. This whole test seems unfair and insensitive to the people who are taking the test as its advertised as "A fair test, that depicts your intelligence, that one does not need to study for." Ridiculous.
