That seems like a really interesting approach. I experienced exactly what you describe taking the introductory physics for engineers class. I got something like a 27% on the final exam, leaving entire problems blank because I did not even know how to begin. I clearly did not understand the material and would have dropped the class early if I was getting poor grades. But that didn't happen; with the curve, I received an AB in the class (halfway between A and B). They sent me on my way and to this day, I really only understand the physics that we learned in high school.
