[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an honest question How will UMD be able to tell apart a student who gets straight A's every quarter - 98 and then a 97. vs The students that struggle, but retake everything and hand in things late and get a 79.5 and an 89.5 Because on MCPS transcripts without SAT/ACT - these two students look identical. [/quote] No one has answered this question because they can't tell the difference. That is the whole point. Less standards to get into college, more will waste their money with it, and those that enter, spend money, and have loans will drop out. We already have 33% drop out rate in this country. I can't even imagine where it will go now. [/quote] Agree that getting rid of meaningless tests and focusing on more meaningful metrics should decrease the dropout rate.[/quote]
