Actually I did read the article but more importantly, I understood what I read.

“only those scoring at the 90th percentile in the verbal section of the GRE, GMAT or similar tests need apply”...

I don’t care what they score on a single test. If they skate through college and then score in the top 10% on a test, they should be rejected. I witness teachers everyday who are on autopilot and not taking their responsibilities seriously. There are enough of them in the public schools and giving them more pay is not going to solve anything.

How you apply yourself during your ENTIRE time in school is more reflective of how you will conduct yourself at your job and should be the determining factor on if you get the job. Show me a student who gave 100% of themselves in high school and then in college and I’d be willing to pay them six digits to teach.
