[QUOTE="MountainBuzzMan, post: 400395, member: 3069"] Watching my daughter just complete her Tech experience with a CS degree, some of your assumptions are no longer correct. With the acceptance rate now around 24%, almost no one lazy or unorganized is getting in. I went over the material for the same classes that I took and my daughter took. (Calc, physics, chemistry) The material is basically the same and it is covered at the same pace. So the classes them selves are consistent. Looking at the tests they are also the same level of difficulty. The only thing I saw that was missing was the occasional trick question. The thing that was the big difference was the huge amount of help my daughter could get literally 24-7 in each of the subjects she was taking. For us if we did not get it on our own, we were screwed. The main difference is the kids today are a bit smarter, they are all organized and not lazy and there is a huge support system to help them learn. Plus the tests from previous classes are all generally available. (No reason for WORD) [/QUOTE]
