To be fair, this is also a concern here in Denmark. Quite a few University professors have complained that students do not have adequate skills in mathematics, as the bar has been lowered over a number of years in the high school system. My opinion is, the wish for a higher percentage of university graduates in a generation has lead to an inappropriate lowering of standards. (even if I am part of it....)
