At UC San Diego, one out of every eight incoming freshman do not meet middle school math standards

There was an earlier report or draft too, discussed in another thread, and I don’t think the answers were in it either. I can’t find the link but I think you participated in the discussion. you might recall it?

Something seems weird about the report. How does one determine that the students are at middle school level (or 4th-6th grade, from the earlier report) if they are checking for college math aptitude.

Also, is it a temporary issue due to the losses related to covid, or is it more than that?
