Schools shouldn't allow standardized test. They are unfair and discriminatory to students who haven't fully mastered the English language. Its very expensive for some states that are on a low budget. It also causes severe stress to student who don't now good test taking tips.

My first main argument is that standardized test are too expensive just to find out if a student learned what they were supposed to. In Texas the state spent over 9 million dollars in 2003 to test students. Schools shouldn't allow standardized test because the state could use that money for more important things than just to test.
