So the actual bar pass rate is something around 0.22% when you account for them (I did the numbers a few years back in this thread above). Slobodon has passed this benchmark, though, at least.
I saw a documentary about this about 20 years ago. Basically, schools were being somewhat unethical by accepting practically anyone. Many have no idea about the difficulty. I think they were accepting people who had barely passed college courses.
Yep, however, I really like the idea of a meritocracy. It's the principle that community colleges operate under, and you'll see completion rates in the single digits- but that's only a problem if you think people "should" be completing..... which may be a flawed assumption.
I mean really, how many people who bought gym memberships last month are still attending? People are people, and strong follow through is an exceptionally rare quality in people.
