>>11829441the problem is general.
you don't use most of your classes in most normie jobs. You are talking about a radical reorginztion of schooling for it to make sense to drop intermead. algebra. (the real problem is they need to make high school tougher and have most businesses hire from hs students again).
!important!
but just dropping algebra would make general degrees worth even less on the market than they are now because more midwits would have them.
/!important!
it's not like upper division business classes are particularly rigorous at calstates. I mean they could change that. and have real practicals like having you actually import a product through customs, and on the (classical) liberal side have you do real deep dives into management theories, not that surface lvl crap they do now.
but than people that were dropping out from intermediate algebra would drop out from having to read the works and the 1000 pages of analysis on the theories in one semester and write real essays on them.
this got wordy
so the tl:dr; for the degree to be worth anything there are going to be filter classes. people that get filtered by inter. algebra will get filtered by something else
