[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My relative teaches at a HYP school (math). They have remedial math as many kids miss pre calc concepts in a rush to other classes and then can't do higher level concepts which aren't spoon fed like in HS. [/quote] This is the key! The race to be the furthest ahead means cutting corners at the lower levels. This is why many private and some public high schools have allowed the math track down. Some of these kids are just memorizing the formulas and don’t have a deep understanding. Couple that with grade inflation and the weak foundation emerges in college.[/quote]that means the tests are too easy. The us track of alg 1, algebra 2, precalc is ridiculous slow[/quote]
