[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ironic since I was just talking to my neighbor who is a teacher in MCPS. Her DS was put on academic probation after his first semester in college due to dismal grades. He didn't really attend class regularly (he didn't in HS either) and was pissed that none of his professors allowed retakes. He didn't improve enough in the second semester to go back next year. His mom is pissed but students are being passed along with these BS practices and some end up in college. It's educational fraud. Yes, I know all of the students of DCUM posters don't need retakes but there are kids being passed along who do end up in college. I remember reading an article years ago that something like 40% of a college students need to take remedial classes. So how can they be getting all of these As in HS but need remedial courses in college? Something doesn't add up.[/quote] So he didn't attend class regularly but an MCPS teacher is blaming the system for his inability to pass freshman college classes? Yeah sure, [b]ok Jan[/b][/quote] That's right, Feb[/quote]
