How’s That? Business starting to request SAT scores???

It looks like the message about dumbed down high school diplomas and watered down college degrees is sinking in to an important part of our society – business and industry!

The “College” web site reports that while the practice is not yet widespread, a number of major employers are now requiring SAT scores as part of their application process.

The SAT is possibly not a very accurate determination of real employee potential, but when educators water down their standards, businessmen will react, and are in fact reacting!
