 | | Similarly, if one thinks students should consult PGR because it will give them a sense of various programs' placement prospects, then, it seems to me, what that argues for is more openness about placement results, or a system of rankings based upon placement results, rather than a system of rankings based upon something else. |
 | | I expect that we would probably disagree on exactly what, and how great, PGR's virtues are, but I fully recognize (thanks in part to some helpful discussions with Keith) that there are students for whom PGR is a (relatively) good source of information, and I have said so explicitly in my comments here. |
 | | PGR, in my experience, gives students such bad habits, and the time I find myself wasting is the time I have to spend undoing what PGR has done. |
