3. College mathematics course placement
More than 20% of students entering college (including some who have taken upper level high school math classes) are placed into developmental math courses (no college credit).
This number rises to almost 50% of students entering a two-year college.

4. Success in developmental courses
Only 30% of the students placed into developmental math classes successfully complete the courses, thus allowing them to move into the required credit bearing courses.
This effectively bars them from completing a college education.
