This is not a review

News story says here that high school kids are taking "more challenging" courses and getting higher grades, but their test scores on national exams are going down like Britney's chances of getting sober. ZING! (No, I couldn't think of a bald joke.)

What's the explanation, I wonder to meself. The writer of the story seems to think, as do supposedly befuddled government and education types (you know the kind: the 'tards who did so poorly in school that they wound up in government and education...and now they design said national exams for high school kids) that the problem is with the national math and science tests.

Oooooookaaaaaaaay.

Math doesn't change, dildos! Either you know how to do a derivation, or you don't. Perhaps, just a wee suggestion from I, you might look at how the local "advanced classes" are being administered, and whether or not dopey rich white kids taking those courses are being taught what they need to know, or if instead all they're getting is passed through because they are rich white kids. Look: we all know who is taking these "challenging courses," and it ain't Deron and Shakkita.

Way to make the whole country look bad, dum-dums! I give you a 1.....out of 5! Hah! It IS a review, now!!!
