Ironic and delicious, since this is also how the public education system in the US is incentivized.

A comparison of testing criticality across countries would be interesting to read if someone knows a decent reference. My sense (which I don't trust) is that test results matter at-least-as much or more in other places than they do in the US. For example, are England's A-levels or China's gaokao tests or Germany's Abitur tests more or less important than US SATs/ACTs?
