According to the latest statistics, after two years, only 13.6% get an associates degree OR transfer to a 4-year school. <br /><br />We're also not talking about adult education classes. I took classes at Brookdale to get a real estate license. <br /><br />And then there's the stat that over half their students will never get a 2 or 4-year degree. <br /><br />A place where most kids dropout is not a healthy educational environment.Aberdeenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14593197510549429078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7442846349063232268.post-61078594707632976892011-03-06T01:13:58.459-05:002011-03-06T01:13:58.459-05:00Do you really think that students are going to Bro...Do you really think that students are going to Brookdale to earn an Associates degree and are somehow failing to achieve that goal?

I suppose you've not taken courses there.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09082406276423678772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7442846349063232268.post-41167625896218985032011-03-05T22:08:50.624-05:002011-03-05T22:08:50.624-05:0086% of their students can't handle a two-year ...86% of their students can't handle a two-year program or transfer to a 4-year college during that time period.
