The document discusses the debate around the importance of college entrance exams. While some colleges have reduced emphasis on standardized test scores like the SAT and ACT, others still consider them heavily, especially for out-of-state and highly competitive schools. Entrance exams are less important for in-state public universities but remain critical for graduate programs. The significance of test scores varies between institutions, so students should check admission requirements and prepare early if exams are an important factor. A well-rounded application considers more than just entrance exam results.

3. THE DEBATE:
 Over the past ten years, college entrance tests have
seen significant changes to manage scoring issues, yet
numerous adversaries of these exams assert that scoring
results can even now be effortlessly controlled. A few
colleges as of late have started putting a greater
amount of emphasis on different sorts of criteria for those
seeking admissions and the rest have discarded
prominent tests like the SAT or the ACT for admission
applications.

4. IN WHICH SCENARIOS DO THEY DON’T MATTER
MUCH?
 In the event that you are applying to an in-state
university or college, the scores on your SATs or ACTs
may not count that much. Universities or colleges will
mention too on their selection criteria in the event that
they are searching for high SAT or ACT scores, and
schools will likewise mention on the off chance that they
don’t acknowledge scores of these tests as a part of
their admission process.

5. IN WHAT CASES DO THEY REALLY COUNT?
 Entrance tests for community colleges, 2 year degree
programmes or four-year degree programmes, similar to
the SAT and the ACT, tend to consider more on the off
chance that you are applying to an out-of-state school,
a school with the help of a scholarship programme or a
school which is recognized on a national level for
academic excellence.

6.  Albeit a few schools are getting rid of admission exams,
numerous colleges and universities still emphasize on
exam test scores to help analyze new student
applications. Exams for graduate schools, similar to the
MCAT, GMAT, GRE and LSAT are still critical on graduate
school applications – and any new candidates must
take these tests seriously and do all that they can to
prepare and perform well.

7.  The main consideration on the significance of college
entrance tests: dependably check the universities or
colleges you wish to apply to for their admission process.
Start looking into regardless of whether you require stellar
SAT or ACT scores no less than one to two years prior to
even you start applying to colleges; at that point, you
can begin your entrance exam preparation for these
tests if needed. Remember that while colleges may
utilize exam scores as a part of their admission process, it
is as yet imperative to make a balanced application
which will incorporate something additional than test
scores.
