Harvard Law School just dropped the LSAT as an admissions requirement
Historically, standardized tests were justified on the grounds that they can identify exceptional students from disadvantaged backgrounds who might otherwise be shut out of education opportunities for reasons of racial, class, regional or legacy preferences.
But SJWs and their ilk know nothing of this, nor do they really care about outcomes and consequences. They are themselves the greatest perpetrators of the bigotry of low expectations.
I know of kids who didn't realize they had talent until they earned an exceptional score on a standardized test. Their teachers had failed to notice until then as well.
