#2 Excellent results of Common Core, when the whole purpose was to dumb down the commoner.

#3 Zero is the highest; correct?

To be honest this score really only reflects one thing: administrators were prevented from cheating with on the exam this year

#6 Now, now, CF: this isn't race related - unless you consider "liberals" to be a race?

#10 Not just Baltimore. A friend's daughter in Atlanta wants to move from a charter school to an inner-city school because the benefits are better. Must have hazardous duty pay or something.

#11 Math and English is not required to excel at your University Socialist Indoctrination Camps anymore. That would conflict undocumented non-English speaking entitlement dreamer Dem voters speaking safe spaces from Ice Retainers.

#12 NW, I've worked with a number of people with rather dicey English skills (to be fair, my Chinese is infinitely worse than their English), but if they don't have the math chops they don't get in the door.
Some places in the University haven't succumbed yet.

#14 Ebonics issues go beyond English. I recently had a co-worker get all upset because the boss said "90 seconds" in a meeting regarding a corporate directive, and she jumped up and down swearing it was 1.5 minutes, not 90 seconds. "X(her name) don't do no math", she said, after it was explained to her. Yeah, refers to herself in the 3rd person, just to make it more interesting. It's not a culture that will take over the world anytime soon, but they have won a few cities!

#16 Yea, well, Tryvon Martin got BA without math

If I recall correctly, he was dead before he registered, so math was not the only required skill he lacked.

#18 Trayvon Martin turned 17 three weeks before he died. He was on suspension for tardiness at the time of his death.

His grades have not been released.
