This can become a problem if not for admissions, then for students who are taking a class that is no longer taught as a true introductory college class, but as a review and extension for students who are presumed to have mastered at least some of the material in a high school classes.

<p>Of course, it is possible that this was just a made up excuse to get enrollment in the class down to below the capacity that the school had.</p>
