That's a bold claim. Can you back it up?
On the flip side, an actual path to citizenship is military service.

- johnnyanmac 3y ago>That's a bold claim. Can you back it up? It's more of a spiritual gesture than some hard law. They aren't called "standardized tests" because they test for the exceptional. I'm sure we can put the relevant education board in a room and have them argue over what should/shouldn't be on such tests, but the current result is a compromise after years of deliberation, being tweaked a little each year. I'll be a bit more specific and say "high school testing is designed to provide a floor of knowledge a government feels its citizens should achieve" if that helps.
