Colleges Making SAT Optional as Admissions Requirement

Murray, Charles. "Colleges Making SAT Optional as Admissions Requirement." The Education Digest (2007): 1-11. Proquest. 5 Apr. 2008. http://proquest.umi.com/pqdweb?index=14&sid=4&srchmode=1&vins

This article rocks. It comes from the Education Digest and was published in December 2007. It provides a good opinion to abolish the SAT. It is a summary of credible websites and admission officers and University officials displaying their opinions about its inaccuracy of predicting freshmen in college grades.
