At last, something that make sense. I applaud you for making this video. I have spent the past 5 years working with students in preparation for the PSAT, SAT, and ACT. It is my opinion that these tests measure test-wiseness skills, how well you can take the test. Beyond that, the predictive value is poor. The power is in testing performance - to show if you can solve a problem and also display your knowledge of how you got there. This process provides instructional feedback for both student and educational improvement.
