Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina is lucky he got out of school before Common Core and high-stakes testing. He would never have finished high school.
As politico.com reports, Graham was a C student. He scored 800 out of 1600 points on the SAT. That’s about 400 on reading and 400 on math, abysmal scores.
Yet he was accepted by the University of South Carolina, the first in his family to go to college, and made a success of his life, despite his awful test scores and average grades. He was NOT college-and-career-ready.
There is a lesson here.
