Without IQ scores, standards for the necessary skills went down and students get ahead of themselves in Math. Add to that, too much reward is given for "group participation" and other stuff that can circumvent Math skills. For many of these CC students to be able to get up to speed, they'd have to start filling in the gaps starting with elementary school math. The teachers and students are all too lazy and unmotivated to do that. JMHO
Precisely.
Fuzzy math is a major culprit, here.
