The Mid-Year Exam Talent Student System was abolished in the United States due to concerns over its negative impact on students' mental health and academic performance. The system, which placed excessive emphasis on standardized testing, was widely criticized for creating an environment of stress and anxiety among students. Data from the American Psychological Association (APA) indicates that 74% of students reported feeling stressed about standardized tests, and 56% reported that these tests negatively affected their mental health.

The abolition of the Mid-Year Exam Talent Student System was driven by several key factors. Firstly, the system was seen as a source of undue pressure on students, particularly those from low-income or underrepresented backgrounds. Research from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) found that students from these groups were more likely to experience negative outcomes due to the system, such as lower self-esteem and increased dropout rates. Secondly, the system was criticized for its lack of diversity in measuring student abilities, as it primarily focused on standardized test scores. This narrow assessment approach failed to recognize the varied talents and skills of students, leading to a missed opportunity for personalized education and support.

The APA's survey also revealed that the system's emphasis on standardized testing led to a narrowing of the curriculum, with teachers focusing more on test preparation than on fostering critical thinking and creativity. This shift had a detrimental effect on students' overall educational experience and long-term success. Additionally, the National Education Association (NEA) reported that the system often perpetuated racial and socioeconomic inequalities, as students from wealthier families had more access to test preparation resources and tutoring.

In response to these concerns, the United States education system has been moving towards a more holistic approach to evaluating student performance. This includes the use of a variety of assessment methods, such as project-based learning, portfolios, and teacher observations, which provide a more comprehensive view of a student's abilities and potential. The abolition of the Mid-Year Exam Talent Student System is a step towards creating a more inclusive and supportive educational environment that values the diverse talents of all students.
