Colleges use placement tests for college level rarely met by state HS standard tests SAT/ACT only comparable HS test across US. Useful only for competitive admit only. Flaw: Top scores based on content that will be taught in univ, doesn't predict completion nor prep for unrelated programs

They should be removed with another test that truly demonstrates their understanding on topics Math, Reading, science, and history at the end of Junior or senior year. The SAT is for profit and multiple choice, not good as a exam indicator of proficientcy.

Its a standard for a reason. Especially for the US, where public high-school graduates are reading around an 8th grade level. Letter grades are not indicative of quality of the content.

The Catholic Church swept pedophile priests under the rug for decades and facilitated human trafficking illegal immigration into this country. The pope and church deserve much criticism.

The Pope spends too much time protecting Islam.

You don't threaten people with harm or death to gain peace. This is insane.

Disgraceful. Blasphemous. Politics has no place in religion. If a normal person went on such a disgusting tirade they would be fired from their job!

No politics, like the way the last communist pope was so anti-American and supported the global warming religion more than Christianity?

Yes, If we finish the job, that will be no problem, but only if we remove all deterrents.
