About 1/2 of students enrolling in community college require remediation. A 2012 district evaluation found that 44% of [school name] graduates were not college ready in math. For minority students the numbers are even higher, as much as 90% in some places. Only about 22% of students that undertake remediation complete college and receive a degree.
