[quote=Anonymous]The kids applying to T20 schools are mostly exceptionally good students - far stronger than their parents generation. There are exceptions. Harvard has been forced to put students in remedial algebra because they take so many hooked but weak students. But at other schools, the students are generally incredibly strong. Where professors may complain is that it's harder to get classroom participation than in the past, but that is more a generational issue. The bottom half of high school students, however, are very unprepared for college due to lots of reasons. Any college that takes average and below students will notice a big difference compared to classes from 10 years ago. [/quote]
