Has anybody ever considered that despite all the emphasis society puts on people going to college, some people just aren't cut out for higher education? Nothing against them, it just seems like when you introduce the masses to something that is about separating yourself intellectually from the pack, the results are less than inspiring. A good number of people graduating these days get no practical benefit from going to college.
- philwelch 16y agoThe SAT (for all its flaws) was once called the "Scholastic Aptitude Test" and actually functioned as an IQ test. It has since been renamed simply the SAT because it's politically incorrect to suggest that some people have "scholastic aptitude" and some people do not. Food for thought.
- pavel_lishin 16y agoYou know how it's absolutely incontroversial to point out that not everyone is cut out for grad school, or doctoral programs? I wonder why saying the same about college is a big deal.
