Why is this allowed? If you aren't AT LEAST ready for pre-calc by college you have no business being in college. There isn't "remedial reading" in college, and yet we find it acceptable for students to collect federal aid while learning fucking pre-algebra stuff.
Because public high schools are held back by the lowest common denominator and universities are thereby forced to offer classes which take this in to consideration.

This is why SATs need to be replaced by IQ tests. Universities prey on brainlets by allowing this bullshit and dragging them into hopeless majors.

>wowww people trying to be less retarded is bad because they're using money that is legally theirs to apply to receive It's not up to you whether these classes are offered so why don't you shut the tuck up you autistic shithead.

No you fuck off. I'm the one that pays their tuition with my tax dollars. If they have to relearn MIDDLE SCHOOL concepts, they can go back to middle school. They aren't trying to "be less retarded", they are just barely skirting by so they can collect their useless English degree they've been told is just as legitimate as mine, all while I pay for it.

>tax dollars more important than education lol, I'm pretty sure you haven't thought this one through dumbass >gb2 middle school Which is paid for by your taxes, and that's what they're doing >they aren't trying to be less retarded they're trying to get a useless degree Show some evidence for this claim you fucknugget

Blame the public education system which is the actual tax drain. Federal funding for college is a drop in the ocean compared to what we spend on our atrocious public education.
To be honest with you most kids going into college starting with pre-calc or calculus don't actually have a good grasp of algebra and could benefit from remedial or review courses.
Also that picture isn't pre-algebra it's algebra 2. Concepts that are fundamental to learning calc. So why are you pissed? What should they do instead just give up on education? Kys.

If you're going to deny reality you need to go to a more appropriate board like /pol or /b
