It's been too long since I've posted. I've been trying to figure out how to bring together Karen's comment about testing non-content-related standards, Vihao's comment on how face to face interviews catch information that paper tests miss, and Sherry's comment about how what students plan to do after school should have an impact on what they're learning in schools.
I suppose I can ask another blue-sky question: how close can a test get to measuring real "education"?

Verbal assessments might get closer to measuring "real" education than paper tests do. I've always thought that if I become a professor one day, I'll definitely do at least one verbal test in my classes. Probably as a portion of the final.
