This is sad. we need to stop giving everyone an A and give real grades, let's go back to giving 0's and F's when they are earned.   [/quote]

Well...the colleges are accepting these kids, so I guess it didn't matter for acceptance.

So, if kids that need to take 9th grade math are accepted at GMU...who the heck are they rejecting?[/quote]

George Mason University admissions is selective with an acceptance rate of 91% and an early acceptance rate of 91.1%.

per google, so I am guessing 9% of the students applying...[/quote]

USNWR uses "selective" like the industry uses "leather". It means "least selective", because it's not 100% open admission.

The interesting thing though is that while GMU is close to open admissions, its average admitted students stats are higher than many of the other VA public schools with tighter admissions and they have been steadily improving.[/quote]
