<p>All ABET certified engineering schools have to maintain certain standards, otherwise no company will hire those graduates and they will lost their certification. If a school allows any warm body to come in and still maintain its certificate, the school has to implement some weed out classes thus the attrition rate. In order to be competitive in the society an engineering student must change his study pattern and sail through those difficult courses, otherwise, he will be not be competitive in the school and cannot get a job after graduation.</p>
