Do you think there should be a "college equivalency" test or certificate?

Answer 1

They already have the SAT which predicts how well you would do in college.

College, unlike high school, deals with so many different majors and topics that I don't think it would be possible, anyways. College is less "general."

So, my answer is, "No."

Answer 2

Unlike high school, which assumes a common body of knowledge (but many different ways of getting that knowledge), college does not assume common knowledge. A physics major would come out with a very different outcome than would a dance major, for example. What they share is an approach to learning and a depth of knowledge in their fields. A college graduate should have an awareness of how to learn and confidence in his/her field, which is a lot harder to measure than is the material expected of a high school graduate. So no, I think a "college equivalency" test or certificate would be useless.

Answer 3

Some colleges offer adults college credit for life experiences that have given them the kind of knowledge they could have obtained in a classroom but instead acquired in real life. In fact, I know a woman who never got a bachelors degree that in her 50s has been admitted into a Masters degree program based on getting credit for her life experience, although this is unusual. But many adults may get up to a couple years of college credits based on life experience. The problem for younger people is that if you don't have a college degree, it is harder today to get into the kinds of jobs where you can acquire such life experiences.

For students, Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate programs give some students test results that let them get college credits. Others may be awarded some college credits by passing tests offered by their particular college or university, although this is not usual.

But as far as something like the GED for college, I don't think that's going to happen. You can buy a "degree" to put on your wall from some bogus colleges online, but that's not likely to impress anyone.

Answer 4

How do you think such a test would proceed? The purpose of most colleges these days is to provide a liberal arts education, meaning the student should have exposure to a breadth of material as well as depth in a single (or more than one) area (the major). The college education experience has as an integral portion the exchange of ideas, so training is received in all aspects of communication and logic as well as any technical knowledge.

The truth is, I don't see there as being an "equivalent" anything to a college education. The education itself is a life-changing experience that is unique from any on-job training or from most non-rigorous courses of self-study.

Answer 5

confident. If a woman can request a toddler help by ability of DNA Conformation, a father could be enticed to the flexibility to have a DNA attempt.
