Standardized tests aren't designed to fail students, they're designed to figure out who is naturally-gifted. If the tests were designed so that the average person could ace them, how would we know who was above-average?

We need both smart hard-working people and incredibly-gifted loose cannons for the betterment of society. That's why colleges will accept straight-C students who ace the standardized tests and straight-A students who perform poorly on them. The system works.
