What is this post responding to?  Can you elaborate on the argument you are trying to make?  I said that a focus on exam pass rates would be methodologically flawed.  Sure, it suggests that those actually participating in the Marshall IB program do better than those participating in the AP/IB programs at other schools.  But if that were the metric then the other schools would push weaker students out of the program.  Do you disagree?  That is, do you think exam pass rates are the best metric?[/quote]
