The fewer objective measurements, the more opaque cherry-picking they can do.

And in the near future, you'll wonder why they have way fewer Asian students graduates...

Yep this. Solves all the equity stuff that is the focus these days.[/quote]

PP you replied to. As an Asian family, I strongly object to all these dumbing-down measures. Not when the US has just been downgraded to the second richest country in the world, and China has surpassed us. Immigrants haven't made this country great, generations upon generations of them, just to see it go down the toilet because snowflakes can't handle excellence.

If other systems follow suit, it will be a destructive long-term path for our country. The USA produces the most patents and does the most cutting-edge research of any country, which in turn produces a stream of inventions that can be used for defense, health, etc. Surely people see that diluting academic strength is not in the interest of the nation?
