Testing! Testing! Testing!

My topic for this week is to tell you how I feel about testing.  Truth is I think that education relys to much on testing.  Some kids can be really smart and get good grades and still not be a good test taker, but they get judged by the test scores they get.  Like the ACT; I know some very smart people that didn't do good on that test.  Some people just aren't good test takers and I don't think college, and jobs should be based on how well you can answer a pointless question.   Most of the things we test on for standarized test taking is just stupid questions that no one will ever care about.
