Common Core 'architect' deals blow to opponents with SAT revamp, say critics
The real reason for the SAT changes now comes out, or am I being to conspiratorial in my thinking? The man behind Common Core now revises the SAT to push the Common Core agenda.
The ACT has been this way for years and is a better predictor of performance e in college than the ACT so they kill two birds with one stone, Make the SAT more relevant and increase Common Core.
Great work guys. [Sarcasm flag set]

Essay writing, of course — which requires complete sentences that are grammatically correct, as well as arguments that are logically coherent — is the only way to test a student's integrated thinking on issues. Even better, I believe, was the old-fashioned oral examination, in which the student had to muster his or her vocabulary and argumentative skills at the moment, and was not given time to deliberate. But those days are long gone.
