i'm sick of all these pointless subjects that we're forced to do. it's bullshit

2017-02-23 22:49:56 UTC  

like?

2017-02-23 22:50:28 UTC  

hi

2017-02-23 22:50:29 UTC  

when am i ever going to use algebra in physical tasks like building a computer for example

2017-02-23 22:50:56 UTC  

when am i going to use geometry in property investment?

2017-02-23 22:51:15 UTC  

when am I going to use biology in anything but the medical field?

2017-02-23 22:51:20 UTC  

knowledge of maths is really important in computer science

2017-02-23 22:51:38 UTC  

software. computer software. not hardware.

2017-02-23 22:51:45 UTC  

even hardware

2017-02-23 22:51:58 UTC  

when you'll be dealing with semiconductors

2017-02-23 22:52:25 UTC  

without a basic understanding of calculus and alegbra , it ain't possible

2017-02-23 22:53:24 UTC  

cool. that's nice. but why am I being forced to do maths like that if that is not the field i want to go into? or anyone else who isn't going into that field?

2017-02-23 22:54:30 UTC  

why is time being wasted on subjects the majority of people are never going to use? why can't that time be focused on more useful subjects? subjects tailored to a persons individual needs?

2017-02-23 22:55:15 UTC  

in fact, let me rephrase that, why is it a requirement to know these things to get a high school diploma in most places?

2017-02-23 22:56:58 UTC  

School at least exposes you to everything.

2017-02-23 22:57:26 UTC  

And then when you become an adult you decide.

2017-02-23 22:57:52 UTC  

And even then it isn't easy

2017-02-23 22:57:56 UTC  

it should expose you to each subject, yes. but we should be given a choice in what we want to persue once the basics have been taught.

2017-02-23 22:58:05 UTC  

say once you reach 8th grade

2017-02-23 22:58:15 UTC  

That's for tertiary education

2017-02-23 22:58:30 UTC  

i agree with oxigin

2017-02-23 22:58:36 UTC  

which is expensive and not a lot of people can afford

2017-02-23 22:58:48 UTC  

I was also frustrated in school regarding that

2017-02-23 22:58:57 UTC  

Don't get me wrong

2017-02-23 22:59:15 UTC  

But I think the point is to use the big brush

2017-02-23 22:59:45 UTC  

Expose everyone to everything and then where people do well they pursue

2017-02-23 23:00:40 UTC  

i think the system is flawed

2017-02-23 23:00:46 UTC  

i'm not saying you shouldn't be exposed to everything. i'm saying it's pointless to have you continue doing it well into high school, leaving the extra bits to things like college or self study

2017-02-23 23:01:07 UTC  

the system is pretty much broken in most places tbh

2017-02-23 23:01:14 UTC  

Sure

2017-02-23 23:01:36 UTC  
2017-02-23 23:01:50 UTC  

pft, i refuse to support that site XD

2017-02-23 23:02:16 UTC  

Hang in there is all I can say

2017-02-23 23:02:36 UTC  

And pretend you like everything

2017-02-23 23:02:47 UTC  

i did that for 12 years XD

2017-02-23 23:02:57 UTC  

Like everyone, just fake it till you make it.

2017-02-23 23:03:07 UTC  

Thank you Amy Cuddy

2017-02-23 23:03:13 UTC  

Lol xD

2017-02-23 23:03:16 UTC  

XD

2017-02-23 23:03:24 UTC  

Did all you guys hear NASA's big announcement yesterday?

2017-02-23 23:03:35 UTC  

YES
