We can all take a test before we start and then when we get done with it we are given a colour with our name tags..What do you think? Not all are smart and not all are wise, but we can all compermise.

Yes, but would any of us know which side we're on? Message boards and emails do not give a valid reflection of intelligence. In fact, there are some grammatical and spelling errors on your question. Does that mean you're stupid? Probably not.\n\nI think the idea is less than intelligent, but segregating by superiority/inferiority has been going on for centuries. Every heard of the Egyptians and the slaves? How about the Nazis? They liked the idea of the tags also, but they used stars...

We are all tested in different ways.  You may think it is better to be born into a "super rich family"  But the truth is being super rich bares a huge responsibility.  It is your responsibility to care for and feed the poor.  Wealth may seem great but the fact is it is only a test. If you are buying huge fancy homes while the people all around you are starving, how will that be seen by the all mighty. \n\n Being poor may seem horrible but in the end we are taught that there suffering will erase a large amount of their sin. And also have you ever noticed that when we want something we become more religious than when we have everything, so poor people are much more likely to be religious as they need his help.  In the end I think there will be more poor people in heaven than rich.\n\nHonestly, I dont look at wealth as a blessing.  To me it is a curse.  Everytime you see that beautiful outfit in a store you have to make a choice.  Fill your closet with one more thing you really dont need or feed that child who is begging in the street on the other side of the earth.  How many make the right decision?????  Most do not,  They go ahead and buy another set of clothes or the fancy boat, or the fancy car.  While hundreds will not see a meal that night.  They justify it by saying, I must be a better person because I was given this and I deserve it.  They do not know it is only a test and they are failing and digging deeper and deeper into hell.  \nWe are all tested in different ways, no one person is better than another.  Some are tested with suffering some are tested with the temptation to gluttony there are many tests but in truth none is really better.  The priviliged become proud and The all mighty does not like pride. Those who suffer become humble.  So one may feel better but in fact it may not be better in the end.

Not one bit.\n\nColleges (and employers) don't care how smart you are.  They care about what you can do with your intelligence.  That's why they look at grades and aptitude test scores.

I guess so, women do it, the whole 'experimented in college thing.' I think to be labled you have to feel a strong attration, and be able to fall in love with that gender of person specifically. And as far as 'bi' goes, I think that is a lable for people who are unsure of wich gender they prefer, they are past experimental and into a confused grey area.

It isn't always about the facts and figures you are learning.  A lot of stuff we take in become essential building blocks for other types of knowledge later in life.\n\nIt isn't all bogus, it isn't all exactly pertinent either - it's a mixture of both because no two people will ever experience life and learning the same so we need a broad foundation to move forward with as we head toward college or life's experiences.\n\nCheers

I actually feel that they are dumber than the rest of us sometimes. This is obviously a false belief that has stuck in my mind because the prejudices my mom had while I was growing up, but truth is a person's hair colour is not an indication of intelligence or anything else really.

It's OK, but I would start by introducing the topic. "The idea of requiring potential voters to take and pass a test before being allowed to vote is a controversial one. My team and I concur that this is an unfair requirement which violates many American's constitutional rights."

Those tests don't necessarily mean you are smart. Some people freeze up when taking tests that really count, and some people cheat off of others to get those really high scores. I myself got a 28 on the ACT, and the reason I am as smart as I am is through hard work, the help of teachers, and the fact that my parents pushed me to succeed. And, did you mean literal?

It's a bastardizing of the English language.  People seem to judge you on your ability to spell as a measure of your intelligence.  Most doctors are bad spellers.  So are we saying we are risking our lives to unintelligent people?  Of course not.  Some of us love the English language, phonics and such and we wish it to be properly executed.

Actually - I think you're just testing people. Try asking some questions you actually NEED answers to. Just a thought. ;)

I'm not sure but I think it's really stupid.  I think it's just because some kids don't have that good of a self exteem so they need to be able to lable other kids.  At least that's how it is at my school.

A placement test only tells you where you stand as far as knowledge, in comparison to others. No credit for it, but it should be free to take.

I think it changes from time to time thru out life.  Sometimes we identify by music, or lifestyle, or where we're living, or our political beliefs, or as parents or as kids.  Good question but I'd rather not have to put any of us into little groups; we can belong to several at once.  I think.

Labels only labels used to categorize us and put us in groups artificially. i dont like to categorize myself and I dont like that we use these categories in negative ways. I never thought of this when I was a child and perhaps that is the problem we teach our young that different is bad not just different\n\nGood Luck and God Bless!!

Some people freeze up during tests causing them to do bad on the test, even though they may have known the subject in and out.  Its called nerves.  They certainly do effect testing.

I don't think it matters. Some will do it first and some after. It's also quicker to get drug test than the bg check.
