Commerce – Texas A&M University-Commerce has recently released some student survey results. The Cooperative Institutional Research Program (CIRP) Survey is given to first year A&M-Commerce students and focuses on their high school experiences.
Some of the more noteworthy results were the high numbers of students who commute to school, with nearly 40 % of students who say they commute to school from 50 to 100 miles away. Only 20 % of participants spend more than five hours per week studying, while nearly 70 % work and spend time with friends more than five hours per week. Nearly 24 % say they've had and think they'll need tutoring or remedial work in mathematics.
