I don’t want the USA to turn into India or China, where your academic fate is decided by some cruddy standardized test given in 5th grade.

- povertyworld 8y agoWell, I guess that opinion just depends on how well you did on standardized tests in 5th grade. I smoked all my peers on that test they give you at the end of elementary. It would have been great if some communist party bureaucrat swooped in and took me to a school full of high scorers. Too bad that was my peak academically. Ha.
