Hoday!
I have a beef with the higher education system.
If you're a graduate of a college such as DU or CU here in the Denver Metro area, you're exempt from taking entrance exams to enter their graduate degree programs. But if you graduate from another college, and want to attend their college, then you must take their entrance exams.
I graduated and I have the degree that proves I know the material. So why do grad students from other schools have to take entrance exams when their own students do not? Money? Perhaps it would prove embarrassing, and in some cases, down-right shameful if their own students couldn't pass the material they learned during undergrad studies - but then again they should know because obviously they received the degree - so why not test everyone, scared?
