9. It has a place, but needs supervision

My son is in a hybrid program with college classes and online high school classes. Whoever put his Career math program together did a terrible job. It covers Things like avoiding bankruptcy in one chapter and statistics in the next one. There are no GOOD directions till after you finish a section you needed the help for.
He is taking a college level math, and not a basic level, at the same time. He says the college class is much easier. I've had to help him figure out how to do it since the individual directions stink . Whoever proofed the program dropped the ball.
