If women can't do well on the test, do away with the test

Taking a break from her usual 300 days of vacation a year Queen Mooch let lose this bit of wisdom:

“We can’t waste this spotlight, it is temporary and life is short and change is needed and women are smarter than men. And the men can’t complain because you’re outnumbered today.”

Nice and, well, like everything that comes from the mouth of a King SFB family member older than 18, a lie.  Women lag 50 points behind men in most standardized tests.  It’s only when they get to college where Lefty Lib profs can uh, level the playing field do women do better.  One result of white men doing better on standardized tests than women has given rise to a movement to do away with standardized tests themselves.  It’s the old – lower the standard and then ignore the results rule all over again.

Once the standardized tests are removed from the equation, universities can go about pursuing their affirmative action protocol without all those pesky law suites when they admit totally unqualified applicants over those who scored higher in school, on tests and in life in general.

According to Left Libs running the admissions to places like U of Michigan, this Asian kid’s 8.0 GPA, perfect SAT, president of his senior class, captain of the soccer team and the fact that he’s virtuoso with a violin mean nothing.  Better to admit this white transgendered “girl” with average scores and a club foot for diversity’s sake than take a chance on another high achieving male.

It is all bovine excrement.  Trust me.  When someone says standardized tests don’t mean anything, what that really means is, “I’m not smart enough to do well on a standardized test,” or for Lefty Lib "educators," “It’s too hard to get ‘the right people’ to learn the material.”

See the “I am woman hear me roar” crowd can do anything a man can do as long as she’s not held to the same standard.  So the physical standards for police, firemen and soldiers have to be lowered to allow the correct percentage of women into the club.  The same is true with the standardized test.  Women can’t compete so the test must be flawed.  So the test must be changed or better yet just done away with so that there is no proof of allowing under qualified people in ahead of the more qualified.  Then it will all boil down to the subjective judgment of the admissions board who happen to think an interpretive dance  performance is as good an indication of engineering acumen as math scores.

I have never done well on standardized tests.  I don’t blame the test.
