SAT Scoring Debacle Continues -- Caperton Comes Out Of Hiding

Today's NYT (1,600 SAT Tests Escaped Check for Scoring Errors) reports that there are even more SATs that need to be checked -- 1600 of them, or what used to be a perfect score. How delicious.

The debacle has also forced former WVa. Governor and current College Board president Gaston Caperton out into the public eye to issue an apology and a defense.

But someobody forgot to tell him about the 1600 tests, so he ended up looking uninformed or misleading, take you pick. Hi, Gaston.

Gratuitious FairTest Quote: ""The more we learn, the worse the problems are," said Robert A. Schaeffer, public education director of FairTest." Blah blah blah blah blah.

ONE MORE THING: You think anyone's going to go for national testing with all this going on? It'd be like saying you wanted to give more money to FEMA while Mike Brown was still there. Opponents would have a field day.
