Re: [Mid] Algebra flunkers anonymous

You mean you got to quadratic equations?? :) Yup I had to transfer out of
a school that would have let me skip math-they had a policy where you could
"wildcard" (not take) a general class as long as your department didn't
require it for your major-I was in early childhood and then they closed
their early childhood program! I don't understand the abstract stuff. Nice
to know someone else has the same problem! :) Well if anyone has to have it
at all I mean I am happy to not be the only one...
