Hi Tom,
I can appreciate that someone might have an attitude like the one you
represent above, given the way the current system works. But is a
student with only a GED obtained in the manner you suggest, really ready
to go to the university and skip over the remedial coursework? Somehow I
doubt it. And these days the universities are talking more and more
about eliminating or severly curtailing the remdial course offerings.
