[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The scary thing about what is happening to UCLA, Berkeley, UCI, UCSD, etc. is that STEM professors have objective data of the deficits and mediocrity of the students. But what about the reading comprehension and writing skills of these same students?

The majority of California's public school students are below grade level across all metrics.  The race to mediocrity is being won both by its high schools and the UC system.  Imagine getting a Berkeley graduate who can't do high school math and can't read or write at the 11th grade level?

It appears Forbes was correct to exclude CA public schools from its “New Ivy” list. I am glad my DD was not interested in the west coast this admissions cycle. Had no idea how far the CA public schools had fallen academically.[/quote]
