과외 SAT 시험을 꼭 봐야하나? (미국 대학입시 27년차 스티븐허 원장 컬럼)

안녕하세요~
Steven Academy 에서 알려 드립니다.
미국 전체가 팬데믹 충격에서 벗어나오면서 미국 대학들은 입시에 대해서 전면적인 검토를 할 좋은 기회를 얻었습니다. 실제로SAT, ACT 같은 표준화된 성적을 입시에 반영 안 했을 때 합격된 학생들의 학력에 어떤 영향을 미칠지를 펜데믹 이전에는 대학들이 생각해 본 적이 없습니다. 하지만 지난 몇 년간의 펜데믹 기간을 통해서 SAT, ACT 성적의 부재에 따른 입시의 전면적인 검토를 할 기회가 되었습니다. 거의 모든 대학들이 위와 같은 새로운 상황을 통해 표준화된 성적 없이 입학한 학생들의 학업능력을 지켜보고 있고 이 결과로 인해 SAT, ACT 가 입시에 긍정적인지를 곧 결정 할 것입니다. 최근 입시에는 학생들이 SAT, ACT 대신 AP나 IB 성적을 높은 수준의 대학들에 반영하게 되었고 A Level (Advanced Level) 과목 시험을 이용하는 영국 대학교 입시와 매우 유사한 형태를 보였습니다. 2024년 6월부터 미국 대학들이 다시 SAT/ACT 성적을 입시 조건으로 한다는 건 적어도MIT, Yale, Dartmouth, Brown joining Cal Tech, Georgetown, Georgia Tech, Harvard, Purdue, Texas A&M, U of Georgia, U of Texas Austin 도SAT/ACT 성적을 입시에 반영할거라는 겁니다. 표준화된 시험 성적이 모든 대학에 반영되지는 않겠지만 많은 학생들이 이를 요구하는 대학에 응시하기를 원해SAT/ACT 시험을 피할 수는 없습니다. 향후 몇 년 안에 표준화된 시험 성적 없이 입학했던 학생들이 졸업하면 대학들이 입시를 어떤 방향으로 원하는지가 보일 것 입니다. 그 때까지는 어쩔 수 없이 대학 입시 과정은 불투명할 것으로 보입니다.
The US climbing out of the pandemic shock has given US universities time to take stock. When have we ever had the opportunity to test out how university admissions would change without SAT or ACT scores required? And yet that is exactly what has happened for most universities for the past years. Universities now are undoubtedly tracking the performance of the new wave of students admitted without standardized test scores to see if the university admissions process during that time did or did not benefit from relaxing SAT and ACT score requirements. The fact that AP and IB scores were still accepted at the time made US admissions much like UK admissions with A Level subject testing use, especially at the top universities where many students did have such scores as their application profiles. The fact that as of June 2024, US universities have reverted to requiring SAT/ACT scores seems to indicate that universities will stick with standardized test score requirements, at least for MIT, Yale, Dartmouth, Brown joining Cal Tech, Georgetown, Georgia Tech, Harvard, Purdue, Texas A&M, U of Georgia, U of Texas Austin in requiring SAT/ACT scores. The return to standardized testing may not be universal for all universities, but that does not allow students to avoid taking such tests at all, since many will want to apply to at least a few of those universities requiring the tests. In the next years, once the tracking reports of the students having been admitted without the test scores are out, we will get a more universal movement among universities in what they will want with such standardized tests. Until then, the status quo is on again and off again, I'm afraid.

"Right before a test, I tell students to “Do your average!” and not their “best.” My experience with students in test prep is that they are often concerned about the “show,” the test day, and not the day-to-day learning that they do at home or at school. The ones most disappointed with their performance on test day are the ones who did less than they thought they are capable of. Doing their “average” then is quite good and most all students are quite good in our assessment, theirs and mine, in the course of our lessons together.
The improvements we have gained in the classroom are victories and a cause for happy self-reflection. All students have them, and I am always surprised that they all do. The ones that need help, at times, I have talked with outside of class, driven them home imploring them to try harder, and not do the self-destructive things that hurt them as a person first and as a student second.
All young people improve with such care and mentoring from teachers. This is what we try to instill in our students at Steven Academy. Test prep, after all, is shooting for numbers or letters, but it’s the effort and the motivation to improve one’s self that best result in a satisfying academic achievement. Contented students do their best anyway because they know what that feeling is, so asking them to do their “average” is asking them to show what they are made of in such day-to-day quiet moments of reflection and care in what they do. Finding that in students is the key for us as educators, I believe. It is that “average” we seek in our students when we teach, and what we get out, the student’s personal “average” on a day to shine."
