Hmmm, my grandson attended public school, had a 3.97 gap in advance curricula, made a 34 on first try ACT. So evidently its not the school fault for failure, but how the parent raises children and how the student applies themselves in curricula. Making A,s in ccollege.Pretty good I would say for public school!

There are a lot of college programs that are very easy to earn As in. I recently read about one big state school with hundreds of perfect or near perfect GPAs last semester. Academic rigor is a thing of the past at many colleges these days.

Yeah, no kidding, huh? Maybe something useful. Nobody gives a crap about Liberal Arts degrees. Everyone knows those are a crock.

That students need to learn the material the colleges claim they learn (in the accreditation materials) in order to pass college courses.

There are things that are really important for engineers, doctors, nurses, etc. to know. There are things that teachers really need to know.
