What I hate about the SAT's (who agrees) Options

[JerzDevil]

1)They are too long. 2400? Why not cut it down to like 1400 instead?

2)Why do they have time limits? That's the biggest thing I hate about the SAT's. SAT's require students to do the testing slowly with much concentration in their best efforts to do well and pass. Each section is like 25 minutes. That is too short. Also, the sections are pretty long with long passages and hard questions that require a lot of thinking. The time limit should be like 45 minutes per section.

3)They are pointless. If a student got straight a's with like one B (not saying I did) throughout his whole 4-year high school career, why does the SAT's matter to him and the college he or she's applying to. . Grades are more important and he/she should definetely get into a good college.

SAT 2s aren't the same kind of standardized test. You're supposed to know the information because you've learned the subject, but that's like saying you wouldn't need to study for a final because you're already supposed to know it. It's not a reasoning test like the regular SATs.

It just didn't take any SAT 2s because they weren't required for any of the schools I applied to, and I didn't realize they were an easy way to earn college credit until it was too late.
