If u shit at math, take extra classes.
Yeah I've watched his vidoes. You guys like to refer to him and 1984.
or change majors
i was shit at math, but also i was a lazy fuck during my school days, but thats my problem 🤷♂️
Definitely if all else fails and ya really ain't good in a field, people should just stop. They endanger their clients when they make mistakes when they actually practice in the field.
Substandard graduates and professionals
What in the hell is 'common core'
I heard a lot about it, but never saw it myself
But I guess that's what progressive schools want. To lower the standard so your quality workmanship turns to 3rd world quality lmao
@ZX not sure where you are from but here in USA "common core" is elementary level maths , basic arithmatic, going into basic algebra and geometry (elementary/middleschool) level math
Is it quality?
though there is AP (advanced Placement) in middle school going into algebra
yes-and-no
depends on both teacher and student
I did AP
And IB
again i had good teachers, but i was a lazy shit as i stated before
i actually did well when i did study , but i just never had the interest when i was younger
potential was there and all - just never applied myself
Do Ivy League schools like Stanford(?), Oxford, Yale still have no-nonsense academics at least in the STEM degrees?
lol
@beatless i don't see why not, but i don't necessarily think you have to go to an IVY league school either, as they just come off as snobbish - here in TX we have UTD (University of Texas at Dallas), and it is pretty much STEM oriented - as is was essentially started by Texas Instruments
Damnit you are me
So ivy league schools are just elitist? The quality doesnt make that much of a difference (if there is at all)?
i would say so , the course material is no different and professors just as capable
but it is more of the "brand name"
again UTD is STEM oriented and alot of engineers come out of there, but yea , if you say M.I.T .........
Ivy's are good for graduate degrees
people are going to gravitate to M.I.T over UTD because of name recognition
Which schools in your opinion would never fall into the progressive ideology? Unis in republican states?
yea but is M.I.T IVY league? i don't think it is? (citation needed)
and i would imagine a graduate degree / program from M.I.T would be fairly valuable?
It's prestigious enough and is in Cambridge, Mass, like Harvard, so I'd assume so
Every single one.
I went to a small university in central Tx (Schreiner)
When I was there, at a tiny school of just about 4k students if you count graduates and postdocs, the rot was already starting to creep in
Now
The only institutions I'd assume to be free of it would be the Academies.
But, good luck getting in to one of them.
This got me thinking, even if a nonwoke foreign student went into a STEM degree, ivy league even. He would be susceptible to the progressive ideology even if he's a damn good engineer, and would espouse/be easier to agree with progressive policies.
