Absolutely agree! Standardized testing doesn't capture the full range of a student's talents and potential. I've seen bright, creative kids reduced to stress balls because of these tests, it's just not fair. Education should be about nurturing individual growth, not forcing everyone into the same cookie-cutter mold.

I get what you're saying, but do you think there's a better alternative to standardized testing for measuring student progress?

Standardized testing might not be perfect, but it's definitely not useless. As a gamer, I see it like checkpoints in a game - they help measure progress and identify areas for improvement. Plus, in my job, we often look at these test scores to get a sense of a candidate's skills, so they must count for something.
