[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Poster with the story here. Back in college, I did believe that BS kids were more likely to be slackers with inflated SAT scores. Now it has become clear that the BS taught my roommate how to survive in the real world with the least effort. Colleges know that BS students have learned this efficiency and every year they seek out and admit a group of student who are really good at this skill. They want these really efficient "slackers" to kick the #$%#$# out of sheltered grinds like I was in college so the grinds can reach higher levels than they would by only working harder. "Do you have comprehension issues? It's clear the point was that BS kids are a bunch of slackers who can prep for an SAT but can't function in college STEM classes."[/quote] The only thing I can take away from your story is that you have a chip on your shoulder. So I'm not inclined to put much merit into what you want to believe. [/quote]
