I ran into a teacher I had about a year ago at the mall, and we began talking a little while I was waiting for my friends to meet me. After a while, the topic of school was brought up and she asked me if I knew how she graded papers. I said no and she told me:

"I threw all the papers up in the air, and if a sheet landed on the left it would get an A, if it landed on the right it would get a B, and if it landed in the middle it would get a F."

My question is, does that grading system seem fair to you?

Are there any data which show that teachers trained in SDAIE methods are any more effective than those who simply use good teaching strategies? In our data-driven world, I have yet to see numbers which prove that CLAD certified teachers are any more capable. Where are the studies? Is there any validity or is this just another legislated mandate? If there are actual statistical comparisons of the pedagogy, please point me in their direction. Thank you.

I have ambitions for the future and I want to get a general view of whats coming up for me in the next few years (im a freshman). Besides competing in competitions that relate to my ambitions, I want to know what else to do to get into such schools, and what kind of GPA I will need. I'd also like to know a few experiences from some people who have managed to get into these schools during their college years, or people who are in these schools now.
