Do Higher Program Admission Standards Alter Profiles of Entering Teacher Candidates?
Freeman, Donald J.; And Others
Journal of Teacher Education, v40 n3 p33-41 May-Jun 1989

Those who met the standards scored higher on most, but not all, measures of achievement. The two groups expressed similar educational beliefs and levels of commitment to teaching. (Author/IAH)
