FLEX升學輔導 - 10大理由學生不該考新的SAT！

截至2016年3月，新的SAT即將開始，美國大學理事會發布有關New SAT越來越多的信息，包括四個實踐檢驗。這些測試拼出已被預測由國家稅務總局，包括更改： 

1.回歸分數1600的標準 
2.可選擇文章 
3.不倒扣分數 
4.四（而不是五個）答案選擇 
5.減少依賴計算機 
6.在數學部分更深度，而不是廣度， 
7.更多社會相關的詞彙庫

在一個整體的意義上,這些變化表明，新的SAT將更加緊密配合共同核心標準，而不像它在過去基本上是一個智商測試。而這些變化只是確認了許多業內專家的懷疑：新SAT是不是一個為那些種族或經濟上被邊緣化的學生測試。總之，傳統上做好準備（高分以上）達到標準的學生將不能很好地被新的SAT評價。FLEX建議這樣的學生遠離新的SAT,為什麼呢？

1.更改到新的SAT目的是消除不公平的優勢。 雖然大學理事會已經拿出了大量的修辭來的變化背後的原因，這不是什麼秘密，甚至到了大學理事會，即主要因素的變化之一是持續的批評，標準化測試不公平的，那些沒有準備考試的手段種族和經濟上被邊緣化的群體。事實上，許多新的測試是專為降低那些誰已經做好對SAT的準備優勢。

2.新的SAT沒有課程-- 即使是由國家稅務總局發布了四個測試得到的測試將是什麼樣子相比，已經積累了舊SAT歷年數據只是粗略的感覺。總之，2017年至2018年學生班會的大學理事會本身為考試準備的公司正計劃制定的課程。從SAT考試準備的公司，所有新SAT課程充其量是一個近似，在最壞的情況是不準確的。

TOP 10 REASONS STUDENTS SHOULD NOT TAKE THE NEW SAT!

As March 2016, the date set for the unveiling of the new SAT approaches, the College Board has released more and more information about the New SAT, including four practice tests. These tests spell out the changes that had been forecast by the SAT, including:

1. A return to the old 1600 scale
2. An optional essay
3. No guessing penalty
4. Four (rather than five) answer choices
5. A decreased reliance on calculators
6. More depth rather than breadth in the Math section
7. A more socially relevant pool of vocabulary

What these changes demonstrate, as a whole, is a sense that the new SAT will be more closely aligned to Common Core standards rather than what it was in the past: essentially an IQ test. And these changes only confirm many industry experts’ suspicions: the new SAT is not a test for those who are not racially or financially marginalized. In short, groups that traditionally prepare for (and score well on) standardized tests will not be well served by the new SAT. As a result, FLEX advises such students to stay away from the new SAT. Why?

1. The purpose for the change to the SAT is to eliminate unfair advantages.

While the College Board has come up with a great deal of rhetoric as to the reasons behind the change, it is no secret, even to the College Board, that one of the major factors to the change has been the ongoing criticism that standardized tests are unfair to those racially and financially marginalized groups that don’t have the means to prepare for the test. In fact, much of the new test is tailored to eliminating the advantages given to those who historically do well on the SAT. 

2. There is no curriculum for the New SAT.

All new SAT curriculum from SAT test prep companies will at best be an approximation and at worst be inaccurate. Even the four tests released by the SAT give only a cursory sense of what the test will be like compared to the data that has been accumulated about the old SAT over the years. In short, Class of 2017-2018 students will be the guinea pigs for the College Board itself as for test prep companies looking to develop curriculum. Instead, consider:
