In his book, "Uneducated Guesses",〔Howard Wainer. "Uneducated Guesses". Princeton University Press,2011. ISBN 978-0-691-14928-8. Chapter 2: "On substituting Achievement Tests for aptitude tests in College admissions"〕 Howard Wainer refers to Cole's presidency of the ETS as "disastrous":, and criticizes the ETS's decision to rename the Scholastic Aptitude Test to the Scholastic Assessment Test, which he describes as "redundant and virtually meaningless".
FairTest, the National Center for Fair and Open Testing reports 〔ETS and Test Cheating. http://www.fairtest.org/ets-and-test-cheating Accessed Sept 10 2012.〕 that during this period, ETS " ignored internal warnings about security problems in its computer adaptive Graduate Record Exam (GRE), according to documents recently made public in a U.S. district court...To protect its image and profits in the rush to introduce the new type of test into the marketplace, ETS also misled the New York State legislature about how the system actually worked...In fact, in her deposition, ETS President Nancy Cole admits it is now clear, in retrospect, that back in November of 1994, one or two good memorizers could have given a substantial advantage to a subsequent test-taker."
