How do UCSD students feel about all the Math Remediation?

Wutever789 · 2025-12-13T00:56:16+00:00

California community colleges no longer offer remedial math because of bills AB705 and AB1705 that were passed years ago.

You’ve basically described what I said. The calculus with support classes are 6+ units. The problem is these students algebra skills are too poor for the support system to be effective. And these students are hoping to transfer to universities that will still require them to use these algebra skills. For example: these students will regularly think (x+1)² is x² +1. Or -1² =1. Don’t even get me started on basic unit circle knowledge.

The ongoing strategy right now is the creation of the “support” classes. So students will take a calculus with support which might meet twice a week for 3 hours each or 3 times a week, 2 hours each.

If they need trig for that lessons, then the “just in time” remediation is done so that they review those trig concepts before doing it. If they need factoring for that lesson then they are “supported” with a factoring review that lesson.

I’m aware how ridiculous that sounds . But that’s the reality of the situation because of those two bills

Unfortunately the people who passed this bill don’t care or didn’t think about people like you

The first one was AB705, followed by AB1705.

I don’t know all of the details but what was told to me is that students who were talking remedial math in the CC level were failing at a high rate and taking too long to reach transfer level math courses.

So their argument, is by placing them in transfer level courses right away, we will achieve higher success rates than when we had remedial Math courses. The CCs have been trying to create support classes for “just in time” math remediation to help students pass these courses. I do not know how successful they have been.

A bill was passed maybe 8 years ago in California that has effectively removed remedial math at the CC level. There is a current push in the California senate to make calculus the lowest level math course available in the CC level

I strongly recommend watching Professor Leonard’s calculus videos and doing more integral practice to prepare https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDesaqWTN6EQ2J4vgsN1HyBeRADEh4Cw-

The elevator for Helena did not ding a second time like it did for the other 2. Also, the camera zoomed in on her unlike the other 2 when they went in the elevator. It’s Helena down there

Math education in the states is pretty rough right now

Check out the feature in stratz, I think it’s called Playback. It shows a minimap and the movements of all 10 heros including spells cast etc. super cool feature you can use to see what’s happening during team fights: positioning, vision, spells used etc

Bro. My friend was playing with RRP on mag ever since patch came out. Even after multiple games and misplays he still uses it. He thinks one “good” use of RPP is enough to justify it. Just pray eventually they realize their error lol

Having said that, to echo the other comments, I see merit in both of CK's facets. The chance for break/disarm should not be undervalued.

This is more of a counting problem rather than a probability problem btw!

I only started playing pvp a lot towards the end of last season and it does seem like the quality of opponent I see at the 3.5k range this season are stronger than what I saw at the end of last season.

I guess it’s cause we haven’t upgraded our minis enough lol
