The more important question is do they learn to solve it, fail out, or just get pushed through? One of those is a bad outcome, but the other 2 are fine. | ||

None of those are "fine". The problem is that such students aren't college material and shouldn't be admitted in the first place. | ||

If standards aren't lowered and they're just failed out, that's fine eventually, but I would prefer it to be fine from day 1. | ||
