Spot on, Rez. I'd bet a dollar to a donut that this was a case of not making a qualifying ACT score, which is a damn travesty. There is a complete lack of consideration during the process for people that just aren't "good test-takers". I knew "A/B students" in school that struggled mightily with test scores, and it had nothing to do with their intelligence level. It's nice to see that some kids, like Johnson, are finding "back roads" to success.
