[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][url]https://www.newsweek.com/students-ucsd-without-8th-grade-math-skills-skyrockets-11030373[/url] 18% UC students placed below Algebra 1. [b]Among the students not meeting middle school math levels: 42% had taken precalculus or calculus. And 25% of these students had a math GPA of 4.0 in high school. [/b] Takeaway is that you can't trust high school GPA. 4.0 in Calculus can't pass Algebra. Something is going on.[/quote] GPA and course titles have become unreliable predictors of readiness. 4.0 math gpa in high school yet can't pass middle school placement? High schools are not teaching kids anymore. How did they get through high school math to get 4.0? [/quote]
