Not even college admissions. Kids are being taught to pass standardized tests instead of how to think and process information and if they fail the school gets less money. Add to that, that class rooms are too big and teachers are underpaid for how vital they are too society (unlike police, which take up huge chunks of a town's budget). Then you have the administrative bloat. Just an entire recipe for disaster.

Even the SAT over the years has gotten piss easier compared to past generations of it when you’d actually get nailed for incorrect answers and the “omit” option was a matter of score preservation.

I could almost half ass be convinced it was intentional to pad numbers and have more kids being eligible for schools that cost more, ultimately feeding the loan beast.
