Students probably fail because of external factors (depression, anxiety from poor home life) not because they’re a dumb-dumb. When the course work requires you to understand subjects that have no real world use or your curriculum doesn’t teach you how to apply the education, you’re incentivized to fail as well.

Standards may seem harsh, but eventually it's way harsher to have no effective standards at all.

True. If students are not interested in learning, they should have a pragmatic curriculum.
