I had to double take to make sure it was actually what I thought. At my school, we divided the test into 2 days for students who needed to rest after the "exhausting" sections. Finished math part in roughly 15 min and got scolded by a proctor who naturally assumed I had not taken the test and filled in answers without looking at the questions. The CAHSEE is truly the most pathetic excuse of a test I have ever taken, and I just can't understand why parents of students who fail seem to truly believe it is an unfair exam. It is a great example of how poor California's public school system is and needs some serious reform (not just funding). I actually worked for a short period of time tutoring students who had failed the test 3 or more times, because you get something like 7 tries to pass. The students there could not add anything with 2 digits together without a calculator. They could not grasp the idea of negative values, and they could not give me a summary of any short story they had just read. Everything I thought I succeeded in teaching them something (such as how to find perimeter), they forgot the next day, at best. The real question is why are these people in 12th grade when they can't understand 5th grade material. I'm stopping here because I could rant about this for a long time. Let's all be glad we will never have to take such a stupid test again. If anything, they should just waive the test for the top 90% of the school and give us the day off  | ||
