[HELLRAISER II]

That's exactly what my wife told me although someone here argued that it was not the way it worked. I think you should test and then judge the students that are capable of actually passing the test with correct teaching. But you can't test someone when their best accomplishment in life will being able to fix a bowl of ceral without spilling the milk and making a mess.

Two of my six students could pass the test if I were allowed to administer it differently. But, because I can't do anything except read the questions to them, they fail. One little guy just has a problem focusing - he knows the answers; he simply can't focus on the question long enough to answer them.

So, we continue to lower the overall scores.
