6th grade isn't bad at all. It is about the same level of reading as a TV sitcom. A person with a 6th grade reading level may be limited in regards to higher education, but reading won't be an issue in their day to day life or even most career paths. If you aren't challenging yourself by seeking good media and active reading, it is pretty likely that you will fall to around that level.
