[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious about this. S[b]omeone mentioned on another thread that people need a minimum IQ for college. If you agree, what would it be?[/b] I mentioned that I teach first grade and we have students with low IQs yet it is drilled into us that everyone must be college ready. How realistic is this?[/quote] I agree although I would be hard pressed to say what that iq would be. But I'm a teacher as well and it frustrates me that within the realm of education, there is a refusal to acknowledge that half of all students are cognitively below average. Outside of kids with diagnosed intellectually disability, one can never hint that the reason a kid might not do well is because they just might not be too smart. But yet, the expectation is that the students should be able to perform as well as those who have iq's 10-15 points higher. [/quote]
