I saw a post on econ job market rumors that claimed that 2 thirds were told to leave due to failing their core exams. The thread goes on and on about pass rates under 50% for the last three years.
I know most of these posts are just a bunch of sexist bullies talking trash.
Thus these are relevant questions:
Are pass rates that low at UC Davis?
They mistreat their students?
How well they treat students?
Davis is my best shot so far so I'm really interested on those issues.
