Interesting upon reflection?

From Greg Mankiw:

“President Summers asked me, didn’t I agree that, in general, economists are smarter than political scientists, and political scientists are smarter than sociologists?” [former dean Peter] Ellison told the Globe. 

And the proof?

GRE Scores

 I believe this may be true: "Scores going in do not necessarily predict later results".  However, many of us stories that go like this "HE made it into WHERE?  For WHAT?"

Like that old joke "what do you call your friend that graduated last in her class in Med School?"

 

-> "Doctor"

Like it? Share it!

Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom (and how Government is taking that away from us). My fight, from a Conservative (with small "L" libertarian leanings) and evangelical Christian perspective, is with the Progressives that are forcing a collectivized and secular humanistic future upon us. As TEA Party activist, citizen journalist (and pundit!), my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture again.

    But the most ironic ranking is that “education” ranks only a little above “public administration”. :)
