· A standardized test is an exam that is administered and scored in the same way everytime, no matter which student is taking the test. Thus, an answer that's right (or wrong) for one student, would also be correct (or incorrect) for every other student. In the United States, standardized testing became increasingly popular over the course of the 20th century, and is used today to measure students' knowledge in an objective manner, regardless of where and how they were educated. Examples of standardized tests for younger students include statewide assessment testing, such as the EOCs of North Carolina. Examples of standardized tests for older students include the SAT and ACT, which are used primarily for college applications.
