The Validity of the Social Work Licensing Exam

Is this test valid in the sense that it may not test what is necessary to be a good social worker but rather test the taker’s ability to test? The very best Social Worker might not be the very best test taker. Likewise, the very best test taker may not be the very best Social Worker. “No single test score can be considered a definitive measure of one’s knowledge”. Do you agree or disagree with that statement? As a practicing Social worker, what is your opinion on this subject?
