There are no “weed out” courses at Duke, they would be inconstant with the University’s overriding educational philosophy. Moreover, with a four-year graduation rate approximating 90 percent, there’s obviously very little “weeding out.”

I don’t think people typically think of a “weed out” course as a course meant to get certain students to leave a school. its meant more to determine their academic fit for a certain major.
