I'm not sure what to think about this.

"We want students who are ready to be able to move on to their higher education," says Lyonel Tracy, New Hampshire's Commissioner for Education. "And then we can focus even more attention on those kids who need more help to get there."

Most kids need time to mature some, can you imagine a bunch of 16 year old collage girls? How many college guys may end up in jail?

I know I personally wasn't ready for college when I graduated high school at 17. I didn't go until I was 20. But there may be some who are more mature and able to handle it quite well.

The thing that worries me is the criteria they are using to go on to college at that age. I could ace any standardized test you threw at me, but that didn't mean I was ready for college.
