Do tests such as the SAT and ACT offer a complete picture of a student's abilities? Psychologist Robert Sternberg doesn't think so. He believes conventional standardized tests leave out important qualities -- such as emotional intelligence and pragmatism -- that lead to future success. He tells Anne Strainchamps that we need to change the way we evaluate students, starting with college entrance exams.
