What was done in the past isn’t relevant to Kelsmom’s contention that her friend is teaching an Algebra course that is “college level math”. This is not the current practice. At what institution would a student entering today have to take “College Algebra” if they already had algebra 2, trigonometry, and pre-calculus in high school? Any high school which doesn’t offer those subjects is not preparing their students to enter at the expected college level, which is taken to be Calculus I in the current system.</p>
