- Eliminate grades K-12
- Eliminate grades in college
- Free college for everyone
- Keep standardized testing like TCAP to assess *teachers*
- More industry standardized testing, like the actuarial P1, the bar exam, ASE certification, or AWS CSA, to facilitate hiring
Everyone gets the same opportunity to learn, stress free. Teachers are still tracked to ensure quality. Hiring is still tracking incoming skill level. Nobody has to go to higher education if they already know the material.

Delaying that feedback to the very end of a long process can lower the likelihood of success. We can debate the merits of different models of assessment, but totally skipping assessment robs the participants of useful feedback.
