Among black students, only 17 percent tested proficient or better in reading, and just 7 percent reached at least a proficient level in math.
Roughly 75 percent of black students received high school diplomas attesting that they could read and compute at the 12th-grade level.
Here are my questions to you: If only 37 percent of white high school graduates test as college-ready, how come colleges are admitting 70 percent of them? And if roughly 17 percent of black high school graduates test as college-ready, how come colleges are admitting 58 percent of them?
Colleges cope with ill-prepared students in several ways.
One study suggests that more than two-thirds of community college students take at least one remedial course, as do 40 percent of four-year college students.
Colleges also set up majors with little analytical demands so as to accommodate students with analytical deficits.
How necessary is college anyway? One estimate is that 1 in 3 college graduates have a job historically performed by those with a high school diploma.
