I don't see what the fuss is all about. Standardized tests in school are so easy, especially when it determines whether or not you pass a grade.

Actually they are doing all they can to make them more difficult here in Texas. thank God I'm not in school anymore. QUOTE(Frankie @ Apr 19 2005, 10:19 AM)  I AM TAKING THE TAKS TOO! i live arlington...where do you live?  anyways, yeah, i hate the TAKS. the TAAS was so much easier! luckily, freshmen only have to take 1 TAKS test this year. it is algebra and i am really good at it but still...I HATE TAKS! Hey U live by six flags!!! I live in Richardson right outside of Dallas. Thats awesome!! :D I used to drive to six flags about 30 times a summer. Not this year, too expensive. Can't afford the gas

The CAT6.
 I hate it b/c of the fact that i'm in 8th grade and now they have science and history. we gotta remember all the science/history from 6th, 7th, and this year. I didn't learn that much history in 6th grade b/c my humanaties teacher didn't teach us that much. same to science. science teacher this year crammed all the science stuff we gotta do this year since she did like half of the year on space. now it's like every week, we learn something different from a different subject in science.  .Let's fail.

QUOTE(JC4P @ Apr 18 2005, 10:10 PM) i'm taking the WASL. Washington Academic Student Learning or something like that. if you fail it you cant pass high school. you live in washington state too? that's interesting. i live there too. and yea we take wasl test when we're 10th graders. but im in 11th grader. i took it last year... it has like writing, math, science, and reading. it was hard... and long >.<;;; i didnt get my score yet because i didnt go to school for a very long time cause i was doing homeschooling. anyways that's not true.......... if you fail the WASL test. it doesnt mean you cant pass high school. starting from the year 2008... that's when they change the law. whoever fails the WASL test, they cant pass high school. right now the law is whoever doesnt pass the WASL test wont go to college, but still can graduate high school.

Finally finished with all of them. Reading and social studies were easy. Math and science not so much. The teachers tried to cram all the prepping in one week. Of course I missed that whole week. Anyways, I'm pretty sure I'll be passing.
