Let's Talk About Standardized Testing...
Confession: I hate standardized testing. This started in elementary school, when classes were put on hold for a week so all of us could take part in Education…
I still remember my college search quite well. Just a few years ago, I was a high school senior who was, like many of you reading this blog, both confused and intrigued by the college admissions process. Five years later (but let’s be honest, it felt more like 5 minutes) I graduated from Tufts as a member of the Class of 2014. I was a Psychology and English double major (with a minor in entrepreneurial leadership thrown in there), as well as a member of a Bollywood fusion dance team (think the end of Slumdog Millionaire mixed with ballet and hip hop), a Sorority sister, and a four year tour guide and intern in the admissions office. I hail from the beautiful state of California (specifically, right outside of San Francisco), and am very willing to sacrifice year round sunshine for my dream job here at Tufts. After years of wondering, I finally get the chance to learn what goes on beyond the scenes and I am excited to share it with all of you… Happy reading!
