The SATs were dumbed down long ago, with essays added, which can and usually ARE graded on however the person grading the test cares to, as essays are almost always subjective to the grader.
The vocabulary section was dumbed down decades ago.
This is old news and was all over the news long ago.
Go ahead...please...attempt to disprove my post/s!
And FYI...the ACT was always easier than the SATs; even in the 1960s!
They are graded on a curve so that is why your post is wrong. It is like you are saying IQ tests are easier nowadays.
