Standardized testing is a good predictor of someone's ability to do well in our STEM oriented society. I score high on these things, but I've also found I'm missing something important compared to people who don't score highly on these things. I think our society is optimized to favor a certain kind of intellectual talent, which certainly exists and is very useful, but does not seem to be the only or even most important personal characteristic. That being said, these tests should not be abolished, but we should also look at other human characteristics that are beneficial.
