Your posts in this thread imply that those who graduate from HS
today are brighter and better educated than in 1965.

While no one here knows the academic achievements of your kid, he
is apparently not representative of the general population of
high schoolers.

The typical college graduate today knows less of the basics than
did the typical high school graduate of 1965.

You know this because of your "close" relatives?
Any of them make it? Without the guns? (For the purpose
of this exercise we should probably accept tenth grade ....)
