[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two causes. first and predominant cause is that schools are passing everyone and doing so with As and A-s.  Secondary is learning loss from COVID.  A lot of kids missed out on the opportunity to learn fundamental math concepts.   [b]US math education is far behind the rest of the world.[/b] [/quote]

This is such BS. In the rest of the world, by the time you get to a school like Mason, [b]those kids would be in trade school not college. [/b]People bash the US because we don't pressure kids to leave the college track early or just drop out and our over all scores reflect it. Meanwhile kids from countries that people love to praise fall over themselves to attend US universities [/quote]

Quite frankly, it's what many of our so-called "college students" should be doing instead of our continually lowering the bar for acceptance into colleges when they can barely do math or write a paper without an incredible amount of outside support.[/quote]
