Certainly the test is not the be all end all, other factors are important. Grades, recommendation letters, activities, and an understanding of the students background.
However it can help us evaluate who is able to perform in a higher learning environment and that they have the knowledge to study advanced degrees.
I had 4 standardized tests in my educational career, 4th grade state test, 10th grade state test, ACT and GRE. Only 2 of those were non-repeatable.
How many do students take these days?
