What does this French sentence mean?
I'm really having trouble with the word "le bac". All I can get is that it means tub or vat. But that doesn't make sense to me. The full phrase is "le bac constitue une deuxieme selection".

"Le bac" is the short form for "le baccalaureat", which is a national exam that all (well I should say "most" rather than "all" because some students stop studying before the end of highschool) French students have to take at the end of high-school in order to be admitted at the university. So your sentence means:
"The baccalaureat represents a second selection."

Maybe in that context, "bac" means "ferry", so the sentence is referring to a second means of transportation.
