Which states have been dumbed down the LEAST by high-stakes testing?

<p>GEORGIA....after georgia placed 49/50 (we're only losing to alabama, but we'll catch up to them soon enough) in education in the united states...the state leg. decided to give us an insane number of ridiculously easy standardized tests. But the problem is that these tests are 3 hours long. 3 Hours of questions i could answer without taking the class, but the good part is that these tests count as our exam grade. Heres the kicker. For my AP Bio and AP Lit class we took the same standardized test, given by the state, as the kids who took normal bio and lit, meaning we took the same test as the freshmen (i am a junior). STUPIDITY! Though it boosted my grade in those classes it proved to me how far i need to get away from this moronic state. Keep your kids away..for the love of god.</p>
