STAR testing is the standard state testing in California. I have to take it, and I think it could be worse. However, I think the people who write the test need to work together more closely with the teachers and those who write the textbooks. We took an Algebra I pretest and there were some things that I have yet to learn in my Algebra 2 course.

What is STAR testing? In MA, we had to take MCAS in grades 4, 7,8, and 10. Now, I believe you have to take MCAS in grades 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10.
