Is it fair to suggest though that some kids actually need remedial math?
I was in the “slow” reading group for the first half of first grade, then quickly got moved to the “fast” group and eventually ended up scoring a perfect score on the verbal portion of the MCAT as well as top percentiles on other standardized tests. My point is that sometimes remedial has nothing to do with potential.
We should stop viewing remedial as “bad.”
