Many Colleges No Longer Asking For Test Scores

As more and more parents are searching for educational alternatives for children, more and more parents are finding that they have to face many fears related to actually taking a chance and putting their children in "new" programs.
Some of the best alternative programs do not give traditional grades. They don't even insist that children attend classes and yet their students are readily accepted into colleges and universities around the world.
Why is that? Because there is a growing trend at admissions offices to value the maturity, deep inner motivation to learn, and high levels of skill and knowledge exhibited by the young people coming out of these schools.
The link below is to a video confirming this trend.

Colleges No Longer Asking For Test Scores 

We believe this movement towards a humanistic approach to college entrance will continue as parents and children flee the traditional schools in ever larger numbers because of the empirical insistance on evaluating children, schools and teachers based purely on standardized test scores.
