[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I totally agree. Although it seems rough, I think countries that base it all on one exam have a system that makes more sense. Set a lower threshold for kids from below a certain income level to ensure parity.[/quote] Except in those countries cheating is rampant and the wealthy get to skip the test entirely. Don't fool yourself that anyone has really figured it out.[/quote] But it is much much worse than it was 15 or 20 years ago. There was a semblance of merit and college decisions made sense. [b] It was never surprising who got into Harvard. Now it feels completely random and out of control.[/b] Our universities are shooting themselves in the foot. Their prestige and credibility are suffering.[/quote] There were fewer students to choose from. Now there are more. And the UMC striver lifestyle has created this increased demand. It is not that complicated. [/quote]
