An article written by Mark Huffman featured on ConsumerAffairs.com explains that there are many students who are not finishing their STEM education.

For the below reasons:

• Losing interest.
• Dropping out due to low-performance.
• Insufficient preparation
• The left or right brain qualm. The idea and myth that some are not cut out for STEM.

These reasons can all be combated with better counseling and deeper involvement within STEM programs.
