Nit everyone knows the strategy and methods for performing optimally on standardized tests
Isn't this valuable? Knowing the material is a first order skill. Developing sound strategy for maximizing that knowledge through context, deduction, and instruction comprehension is a second order skill.

It’s very valuable but we are discussing the tests being equalizers. That’s not the case when higher income kids take prep courses to teach the test strategy while lower income students can’t pay for the same.
I’m nit arguing for or against the tests, in general. I’m just pointing out how they can not be the equalizers they were planned to be.
