I'm curious why you believe it is an assumption that I'm not allowed to make. I actually replied based upon the FACT that the college board designs these tests so that a person who just finished the class with a 'C' grade scores close to a 50 on the exam. I believe after a test is developed that the college board has students who recently took the class and made various grades, take the test and the college board adjusts it accordingly.
However the sister wishes to get her education and what is best for her, is of course the most important factor. Maybe I shouldn't have said 'insist' in my earlier reply. But, it still would be an interesting comparison.
I had written a rather lengthy reply on sitting for classes and how professors gauge a student's knowledge or retention after finishing a course, but I deleted it all. I'm not going to argue with you Spazz. In fact, immediately after I post this, I'm adding you to my ignore list.
