  Also, America needs to start moving away from putting so much emphasis on standardized tests; because the human mind is capable of so much more than highly structered tests. If a student doesn't score as high as the parents would've liked, then it's okay. The reason for this is because there are many forms of 'intelligences", not just doing well on the ACT or the SAT.

  The SAT, ACT, or any other standardized tests , aren't the only indicators of academic success. I am a 3.0 Senior at Northern Arizona University, who just got accepted into their Teacher Education Program, and I scored a 19 on the ACT. What Americans need to realize is that success isn't just measured by the score on standardized tests that are so homogeneous.
