State law requires us to auto-admit a LOT of in-state students who would not otherwise qualify

Explain

Texas law provides that Texas A&M must admit every student in the top 10% of his Texas high school graduating class. The raw numbers vary from semester to semester, but that was 66% last year. As a result, one must be very well qualified, if not in the top 10%. Top 25% must have an SAT score of 1360 for automatic admission, and that top quartile gets us to 92% of admission.

Of 11,000 Incoming freshman last year, only 500 were from out of state.

The top 10% rule drags our numbers way down, because those students on the lower cusp of that range tend to have both grades and standardized test scores far below the level that would be required to gain admission to the University, absent that rule.

ambiguous
I do not think that you understand what this word means. I was speaking directly to user “ReadyPlayer1,” and I used the second-person pronoun “you” when speaking to that user. There is absolutely nothing “ambiguous” in that reference, unless you do not speak Standard American English.

Or perhaps you (Sugarbuzz) ate one of those illiterate morons who uses the second-person pronoun “you” when attempting to use a third-person pronoun.

No, your post was unclear.

Do better, little man.

Perhaps a remedial Grammar course at the local Community College will help you form better sentences.

Perhaps you should see a Doctor about this permanent state of angst you appear to live in.

I didn't "eat" anyone.

Slow down, wipe the spittle off your keyboard and type more coherently.

Serious question: Do you possess an ounce of self-awareness?

There are THOUSANDS of other message boards that would be better suited to your unconfirmed superior intellect, why don't you go there?

I'll get you started:

I hope that the use of Standard American English is not important in your ability to earn a living, given that you clearly do not understand the different usages of the second-person and third-person pronouns.

Nope.

Facts are not your friend here.
If Rittenhouse had claimed under oath he was enrolled in the ASU Nursing program, the pond scum prosecution would have tagged him with perjury faster than a Texas Longhorn can say "aTm sucks".

But he did not make any such claim. Rittenhouse said he was studying nursing. In fact, ASU confirmed Rittenhouse was enrolled as an online student and taking ASU nursing curriculum prep classes.

You aren't REALLY expecting Mr. Locke to admit being wrong, are you?

He is NEVER wrong and any disagreement he has with a poster is simply chalked up to not being able to recognize his unconfirmed intellectual superiority.

I think at this point the entire board should start referring to him as "Aggie Heard" or "Amber Hank".....

Which do you prefer?

Your post was unclear.

It could have been interpreted either way.

Do better.

Wipe the spittle off the keyboard, go kick your dog and walk outside.

I have no expectations regarding Hank. I'm simply responding to posts with correspondent fact.

Really?

ASU released two statements, one immediately after his testimony and a second several days later. The first:
quote:

"Kyle Rittenhouse has not gone through the admissions process with Arizona State University and is not enrolled in the Edson College of Nursing and Health Innovation. ASU can confirm that Mr. Rittenhouse enrolled as a non-degree seeking ASU Online student for the session that started Oct. 13, 2021, which allows students access to begin taking classes as they prepare to seek admission into a degree program at the university."
This does NOT confirm that he is taking classes related to the nursing curriculum. The second corrected the notion that he was even enrolled at ASU:
quote:

Kyle Rittenhouse has not gone through the ASU admissions process. Our records show that he is not currently enrolled in any classes at ASU
Rittenhouse lied.

Why was he not prosecuted for perjury? You would need to ask Binger. Probably just too much effort for a minor offense.

Perhaps a Community College remedial Grammar course.

As an aside, I hope you are trolling.

If your obsessive online persona is anything resembling real-life, you are one of the most textbook examples of a Narcissistic Sociopath I've ever seen.

Well, maybe next to Amber Heard.

Again, I admit that it may have been unclear to an illiterate.

I am not remotely surprised that you were among those confused by the pronoun "you."

After he said he was attending ASU, the university said he wasn't enrolled and had never applied.

The comment was only that he had not been admitted.

I don't know anything about Rittenhouse's grades or test scores, but it's not easy for out of state kids to get into A&M.

Bro come on. That was a horribly worded sentence if it’s goal was to mean what you claim it means.

Not including both subject’s made it EXTREMELY ambiguous.

“Him shooting people you don’t like…” is good and clear.

“Shooting people you don’t like” 100 times out of 100 leads people to believe the “you” is proverbial and also the subject implied as the shooter. 100 times out of 100. That’s basic syntax/grammar.

This isn’t even political. You wrote a bad sentence that caused confusion and are such an obstinate frick, you have to argue about it.
