The College Board under David Coleman: Another Delay– This Time, PSAT Scores
David Coleman was at the center of Common Core State Standards (CCSS) development, a position about which he publicly declared post-CCSS that he and others in his Student Achievement Partners (SAP) nonprofit were “unqualified.” (See the video in this post.)
One year later, in 2012, Coleman became president of the College Board, where he thought he would tinker with the SAT “so that it better meets the needs of students, schools, and colleges at all levels.”
Coleman’s tinkering isn’t going so well. In fact, he could well drive the College Board into the ground as his bumbling efforts for an SAT redesign (one that makes the SAT look more like the ACT) results in “updated” messages to test takers and their parents as scores are delayed.
Such was the case for students who took the October 14, 2015, SAT and counted upon the College Board to deliver timely scores for early admissions. Their scores–which were supposed to be delivered using the College Board’s new score reporting system–were delayed for more than three weeks beyond the common November 1st deadline.
And now, students who took the mid-October PSAT are also facing score reporting The College Board under David Coleman: Another Delay– This Time, PSAT Scores | deutsch29:
