They had to get rid of affirmative action because they are a state school, so the asian and white admissions shot up because they had to base everything on grads and exams. Now they can get rid of exams. It'll only be awhile before they realize the need to get rid of grades too

They may as well. They're already handing out undeserved grades, so they've already lost any relevance.

If you go to school in the ghetto, or in bumfucksville, being valedictorian doesn't say very much. There were 1900 people in my class. The valedictorian was actually a smart kid. There were a lot of Asian overachievers, but he was the smartest one and worked hard as well. At smaller, or worse, schools it just doesn't take as much.

FAKE CLASS RANK in most California districts, and rampant grade inflation too.

FAKED CLASS RANK? Yup! for 20 years!
