Episode Synopsis "2.07: Eliminating Standardized Testing From College Admissions"

Welcome back! In this episode, I talk about the recent decision for the UC's to eliminate the SAT/ACT requirement from their admissions policies. I go into a brief history on standardized testing, shadow education, the effects of standardized testing on low-SES and marginalized students, and where I think admissions in higher ed should go from here.
