[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seriously were any of us “unprepared” for college? Today is total overkill for grades 9-12. 2-4 hours of homework a night for A/Bs, 3-4 hours a night for mostly As plus butt kissing the teachers for 1 of the 2 As and writing exactly what they want to hear, viewpoint-wise. And so cool to read online essays and cliff note instead of the actual book and critically thinking or writing for oneself. That has PE investor or SCoTUS clerk quality work written all over it! [/quote] I remember going to college in the 90s and some of my classmates had never written a paper before and were seriously unprepared for the workload of college. [/quote] That was me. DC now goes to a Big 3 private. Although, I think they do a lot of writing in the local suburban publics too. [b]Smaller class sizes though mean higher quality of instruction and feedback. [/quote][/b] Lol Define small class size and what grade [/quote]
