From the San Diego Union-Tribune (http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/education/20080412-9999-1m12remedial.html):

Cal State schools are a long way from their goal of seeing 90 percent of entering freshmen ready for college-level work.

Instead, 37 percent of freshmen entered a California State University campus last fall needing remedial math, while 46 percent were unprepared for college-level English, according to new data.

Locally, a quarter of freshmen at San Diego State University started school needing remedial math; 48 percent at Cal State San Marcos needed it. About one-third of SDSU freshmen were not proficient in English, compared with more than half at Cal State San Marcos.

And this in the same state that wants to ban homeschooling.

I went to San Diego State from 1990-1992, when I was in my late 20's. Frankly it was easy to get in, but I also had to take a remedial math class. Of course, it had been 9 years since high school, and I am the product of California public schools.

I wonder if there is similar data on homeschoolers to compare with this report?
