Is it narrow minded to report that 40% of incoming NYC elementary school teachers could not pass a rudimentary certification exam?

I'll repeat: Until the Public Education Establishment acknowledges that most top college graduates, male and female, don't even consider a career in education, the downward spiral will continue.

I could make that same statement, with good confidence,
about the failing D.C. Public School sysyem.

Generalize it to the entire profession? Nope!

What percent of engineers fail their PE exam?
What percent of lawyers fail their bar exam?
