I took algebra in 8th or 9th grade and finished high school calculus in 11th.

Have standards dropped that much in 25 years? Amazing.

I remember taking Algebra in 9th, double math with Algebra II/Trig and Geometry in 10th, Pre-calculus in 11th, and Calculus in 12th.

The double math in sophomore year was optional, but a lot of us did it. Now people are enrolling in community colleges, and they can't read, write, spell, or do anything more complicated than multiplication and division.

Sounds like you went to my high school. LOL.
