Ok, thanks! I figured that was what they were talking about but I didn't know you could take that after you graduated from high school? If that's the case I wonder why other players don't do that instead of going the JUCO route when they can't get the qualifying SAT/ACT scores?

Because some kids can't pass even if they take it 20 times.  But an AA degree from a Florida public Juco will get you into a Florida public university regardless of test scores.  

 

On a side note, an AA degree from other select Juco's will also get you in, but it's a case by case basis.

Under Leavitt we sent the non-qualifiers to Pearl River Community College to get their AA and then tranferred them in. I guess that died when he was canned.

He had a few connections in Kansas as well, if I remember correctly.

Yep.  That was a Leavitt connection.  Taggart probably has a different connection.

What was the school that got in trouble?

You need to take it to get into JUCO too.

But the required score is much lower.
