Edumacation isn't everything. edumacation usually means 'how long have u attended a place to give u intelligence?' but doesn't that mean almost anything can offer u intelligence?
yep! education systems in the united states are incredibly flawed.
school for me has always been temporarily memorizing things and reciting them back to make other people happy. as soon as the tests are over, I forget everything I "learned" and use that brain space to memorize another unit. finals are just cramming everything again and hoping for the best.
it doesn't show learning, nor does it show personal growth. it just shows who's the best at repeating back information quickly.
real intelligence comes from actual learning and growing, like picking up new skills or understanding deeper concepts. and you can do that anywhere, for example,,,,,,from free resources online or by shadowing professionals who can teach you the ways of their craft.
learning is different for everyone, so this "one size fits all" approach at school doesn't work. and not everyone is interested in the same topics. there should be way more flexibility.
