The new SAT, which will be given for the first time in the Spring, includes a Writing component to test student's skills.

Yes, but who will grade the papers? Today, college English professors do not seem to be able to grasp simple grammar. I saw "mediums" the other day in a letter to the editor from a supposed english professor. This one always gets me. Now that they finally realize "media" is plural for "medium" they then go back to the singular, then pluralize incorrectly.
