I am glad to see this experiment on our kids access to higher education to finally seeing its end. When I saw state and other universities move away from standardized tests as acceptance criteria during the COVID era my only thoughts were - my kid was will not be college age for years and years and this should be over by the time it may impact him. As someone who immigrated to the US during at a high school age with a non-negligible language barrier and culture shock, getting excellent grades across all subjects in school was impossible, but excelling at written tests especially in Math is what got me into a great state school and opened many doors for me later on. This chance was being taken away from the kids of 2020s. I’m glad this is over. My next hope is that any identity-based acceptance criteria are deemed illegal and acceptance is blindly merit and experience based to give a chance for my kid who may not fall into any protected categories to get into any school that his merit allows
