Well, the idea should be to reduce the number who are not prepared - to have admissions standards that do all they can to insure that those who are admitted are indeed prepared. The top 10% system doesn't even pretend to do that.

eta - the top 10% system seems to be a variation of throw it on the wall and see what sticks. I don't think it serves the students' best interests, and I don't think it is in the best interest of the university.
