Pbs Learning Media: Above the Noise: Should Colleges Still Require the Sa Ts and Ac Ts?

Curated by ACT

Taking the SAT or ACT is a right of passage for high school students applying to college. Millions of juniors and seniors take at least one of the tests every year, albeit reluctantly, and most colleges still require it to be considered for admission. But a growing number of colleges are putting much less emphasis on test scores. Many have made the test entirely optional. Should tests like the ACT or SAT still be used for college admissions? An activity to accompany the video is included. [5:36]
