    I think it would be great if lots of standardized test scores were available to employers ...
    Some may say this presumes the higher scores would be deemed more desirable. Meanwhile powers-that-be may tend to seek and employ those who would be willing followers and not heir apparent to their own leadership position.

    Some may say that it would be important for the job applicant to first be aware of the scores themselves, and have a degree of confidence that the data is accurate.
