I will agree with the notion that standardized testing just causes teachers to "teach the test" and screws over everyone but the lowest common denominator...
But by that same token, "more programs for the gifted" is actually a really, really good thing as far as I'm concerned. They're not just more work, or at least they weren't in the schools I went to, and they definitely enabled me to avoid sitting through any more basic arithmetic "practice tests" every year.
