Do you think one of them is using gear pt. 2

Can't stand these required classes college's make you take that you've basically already had in middle school and HS
Colleges run such a scam these days

Look at the bright side; I had to take EIGHT semesters of mathematics, of which - maybe I'll use a little in my career of choice. Oh well, if that's what it takes to have a stable well-paying career, so be it. :p
 
Someone in the parking lot across from me has the same truck I have. Same rims, everything. He even has a white Giants sticker where my Sharks sticker is...

Well yea but any individual I know holding a masters has told me the core classes are bs. Way to make you spend more. Especially algebra...algebra is used by who? Algebra professors lol
And that's about it...we have strayed so far from arithmetic that our knowledge of REAL math has gone out the window.
You wouldn't believe how many individuals in the class have trouble with basic mathematics such as adding fractions.

Okay, I have heard of Three Loco. I was going to say that they looked familiar in the Dirt Nasty video, and now I know why haha.

Weeeeeeeeeellllp, time to go enjoy my guilty pleasure of arm day. :D Talk at you gents in a few hours. :wiggle:
 
Hmm, I just did an over-lay of my property lines over a satellite map to see what it actually looked like IRL.

It looks like I can stop mowing a small corner of my lot since it's on my neighbors property!

Well, to be fair algebra is used in every day life - you just don't think of it that way. It's the differential equations/vector calculus/discrete mathematics/linear algebra that pretty much falls to the wayside as we use software for all that stuff now. But yes, I do see many folks in upper division math courses that still have issues adding fractions haha.

Yea true...but the fact they force you to learn it when most don't need it to find success in life is crap.
I think if we taught people more accounting and basic/advanced MATH we would be in better shape.
In algebra we learn to find a formula and plug in numbers. A small percentage actually understands the concept behind the subject.
People would be far better off learning to manage money and balance a fuckin check book that way they don't need to take my tax money lol
 
The only thing school teaches you is how to become a good employee.
IMO, you don't gain much useful knowledge.

Think about it, regardless of the curriculum what are schools teaching you?
How to follow the leader
How to complete menial tasks with accuracy
How to not think for yourself
How to meet deadlines
How to follow a schedule set by someone else
How to work independently and in groups

What they should be teaching is stuff like oh
Critical thinking
Financial aptitude
How to start a business
Life skills in general
FFS, how to change a damned tire on a car or read a map


Has anyone learned anything in school that wouldn't have been more effective to lean in the field?

Why do you think the most successful people haven't graduated from college?
