[quote=Anonymous]If you work with statistics, as I do (the one, by the way, who was scolded for not having had statistics or probability in their curriculum), you know not to look at ANY single indicator. You look at a range of indicators of academic success. I find that on any discussion of schools, there are a few people who like to jump to conclusions based on a rather narrow aspect of success. Even more importantly, there is no way to control for the initial charateristics of the students. The point should be to try to measure how well the student advances its students, not how well it picks them.[/quote]
