<p>I don't know how many thousands of teachers there are in each state, how many different races, ethic groups, cultural experiences are represented, but I find it ironic that someone would group us all together,and then make statements about how teachers are prejudiced and that is why one group of students suffers. Any experienced teacher knows you teach the child that enters your class and who that individual is can vary from one day to the next. I started to look at the ei test and stopped when the grouped white and good vs. black and bad. </p>
<p>Going back to the topic.. the best defense against admissions disappointment is to research a group of schools that you would like to go to and include at least one safety school. Too many students focus on their reach schools and overestimate their ability to get into match schools.</p>
