why do many highschools, and now some colleges, stress standardized testing?

I feel its moved me backwards. #psychology #education #art #educator #sociology #politics #philosophy #philanthropy

Hi, I'm a senior and I'm going into sociology after I graduate. I know there is quite a lot to do in the field, but is my choice of a career path seem....right?
I'm going to major in sociology, maybe minor in criminology and my plan after that is going on to law school. I've been told that it's odd I'm going into socio if I plan on going into law afterwards. At the same time I have met people who have gone to school for the same thing and have loved every minute of it. I guess my question is if a major in sociology would be a good path to follow if I'm going into law? #law #lawyer #career-path #majors #sociology
