How can you "move past" not understanding mathematical concepts when they're essential to everything that follows?
I mean that's the whole point of math - to provide an explanation in which every step is necessary, and understood to be necessary.
If there's one class that should be Pass / Fail, this is it, and the bar for passing should be set VERY high. I agree that this would create problems, but those would fall squarely on the schools, who - as many others have mentioned - teach "math", not math.
