[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are weedouts and grade curves necessary? The curve was what I hated most about law school. Why would I volunteer my kid for that, especially when I know my kid will learn the material? Doesn’t need fake accommodations or anything to finish homework on time or get to subject matter mastery. [/quote] Weed outs are not necessary. We are avoiding those programs. ([b]VT is not on our list)[/b] Other students will make different choices and that is fine. Our DC will only be applying to engineering programs with a high rate (90+%) of students who start in engineering graduating with an engineering degree within 5 years. We also will be looking closely at programs where the initial engineering core courses are pass/fail [/quote] VT is a weedout program for engineering? If possible, can you share more details. We are considering the school for our child and have already applied EA there. Thank you.[/quote]
