I'm not on you about spelling or typos. I certainly agree that this is just the internet, and I'm not going to hold you to the same standard as I would in an essay, but you lack basic knowledge that a fourth grader should possess. That is unacceptable. What is the name of this class, and the number(ie, english 203 or whatever)? Is this a four year college? And redravin, please don't edit me. I'm not trying to slight this person. I want to know how he came to this point in his life.

I don't read it as a flame.
I agree with the foundation problem. If you were in college level algebra and didn't understand what X and Y were then it's akin to the same type of problem.
