[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No you are thinking of the University of Arizona UofA
ASU is a good school nothing like you describe
Your post is laughable, where did you learn your critical thinking skills? Some cesspool California Junior "college"?

Nope, you're both right!  I'm from AZ, I went to one, my sister to the other, plenty of young family at both today.  Both schools are full of mediocre students from around the country, mostly California (or just anyone who would have liked to have gotten into a cali party school).  Yes, there is attrition due to addiction. Yes, there are academic deficiencies on arrival (I know firsthand about math, but from infrequency of writing assignments in gen ed classes, problems in that area are also profound).  They are huge schools with plenty of opportunities, plenty of likeminded people to meet whatever that is in your case, but if you didn't come for for more years of HS with bigger parties, it will not be possible to graduate without some serious disdain for the prevailing culture.   And, not the just the partying, the prevailing academic culture-- 
 16% is the median so 25% a high A (no, these were not impossible tests by design, anyone who cracked a book could get above 90% without a curve).[/quote]
