She feels that students face challenges in staying engaged and navigating gaps in their education, significantly impacting their test performance.“We’ve seen a decline in standardized tests across the board,” Rollins said. “So SAT, for example — our state average is usually in the 950s or so. Then the global average is over a thousand. And so, we are definitely seeing our students scoring below that global or national average for tests like the SAT.”A critical issue arising from lower standardized test scores is the increasing need for remedial courses in college. Despite high GPAs, many students are unprepared for college-level work.&nbsp;“Those classes come at a really high cost,” Rollins said, “because you’re paying college-level tuition for those remedial classes that aren’t ultimately going to count for anything.”Rollins emphasizes the importance of early intervention, recommending that parents ensure their grade-schoolers are academically caught up before reaching high school. She asserts that college and career readiness begins in elementary school, underscoring the need for a solid educational foundation from an early age.By focusing on early preparation and addressing educational gaps,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/sylvanlearning/info">Sylvan Learning</a> aims to help students improve their standardized test scores and be better prepared for future academic challenges.Read the full article&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wlns.com/news/experts-speak-on-standardized-testing/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=wlns-sylvan-learning-owner-shares-insights-on-michigans-transition-to-online-testing-to-combat-declining-scores-2726431" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a>.
