I have a few comments regarding the article in your Dec. 1 edition, "Students and teachers nervous about math test."
Sorry to tell you, kids, but life is full of math tests. Get over it. Or better still, get good at it.
Buying a $40,000 pickup truck on $18-an-hour wages is a math test failed.
Signing up for a $300,000 adjustable rate mortgage and new $30,000 SUV on $25-an-hour wages is a big math test failed.
Buying a home instead of renting when you are not sure how long your job will last is a math test failed.
Going into debt for $120,000 for a college degree in business when everyone else is also doing the same is a math test failed.
A single mom getting pregnant again in today's economic environment is a math test failed.
Good luck.
