Same. I did the math 12 upgrade and then on to math 114, and it was like night and day who came from 060/061 and who came from high school math. One time the prof ended up with some divide by 0 and made some comment like "... and since we can't do that ..." and one of the straight-from-high-school kids goes "why not?" He was serious too. 1st year calculus and he's never encountered divide by 0 before... unbelievable.
