Standardised tests administered in exam conditions.

Admittedly it's not a perfect system, but if the existing system is admission essays written by ghostwriters, I'd say it'd be an improvement.

Most kids still think the SATs are an IQ test. Rich kids know how much you need to prepare and often start years in advance.
