[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yup. The reason I wouldn't send my kid there has nothing to do with any assumption that people are racist, though there are some, just as in the DMV. The AL educational system has consistently ranked near the bottom, #47 out of 50 states [url]https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/rankings/education[/url]. According the AU's web site, in the Class of 2019, 40% were in state students with 39.9% scoring 30 or higher on the ACT and an average high school GPA of 3.8. The school has to offer full rides to attract stronger OOS students. That's a smart strategy, but it won't be everyone's cup of tea. [/quote] If you are pre-med and surrounded by other National Merit Scholars, why does it matter what the bottom of the class is doing?[/quote] Pretty much. If your kid isn't a people pleaser, and likes to study and work, no need to worry about what the losers are doing. Get that free ride and save money for grad or professional school.[/quote]
