Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the author's argument?
- Standardized tests were originally designed by psychologists to identify young students who most needed extra academic help.
- Many educators broadly agree that human intelligence is a multi-faceted construct that is genuinely quite difficult to measure well.

- The total number of standardized tests given each year in schools has roughly doubled over the last decade.
