Any concern that the student then focuses on the assessment alone, less interested and less engaged in activities/classes/work that would otherwise teach her how to learn, how to work in a team, etc? Does this focus students on an outcome that is arguably less important than the process to get there?

I'd say there's already a sizable contingent that prioritizes scores over pure learning.

It sure does. Kinda happens in public schools now - teachers teach to the test because they need the students to pass the standardized tests.
