WHY STANDARDS SHOULD BE LOWERED

  • Too much pressure on students
  • Pressure to fit in with everyone and get the same grades
  • Not everybody thinks the same way

FITTING IN

THEY SAY TO BE AN INDIVIDUAL, BUT COMPARE GRADES TO OTHERS

PRESSURE

  • We have to get good grades and deal with core classes
  • Must know so much about a subject we may not need
  • Can't beat yourself up for not excelling in a certain subject

  • You can't force someone to be good at something they won't get
