Retrospectively, I don't see why anyone would do the first two years at an expensive university, freshman and sophomore are so generic.

I had already placed second in the state science fair and been sent to the international in chemistry (I met Glenn Seaborg there) so I was a whiz but I lost interest in chemistry after a while, those two years at Purdue were mainly a chance to do a lot of LSD.

As for remedial, I needed that in math really badly, and ended up getting my degree in math beecause I was so sick of not knowing it well enough. Story of my life: don't run away from problems, run toward them.

My daughters went to community college for the first two years before going to ASU. $$$.
