That's strange because that's not how British universities work at all. Our education system from age approximately 14 onwards is concentrated on specialisation.
- unethical_ban 9y agoIn the US, going for a baccalaureate usually requires "core classes" of math, sciences, arts, and politics. You're saying this is not the case in the UK?
- k-mcgrady 9y agoGoing for a baccalaureate in the UK you pick a subject and that's it really. The concept of majoring/minoring isn't common (possibly doesn't exist). You pick a course (e.g. CS, Law etc.) and that course will have a curriculum you follow. There may be times (usually in the latter part of the degree) where you can pick modules from various options but that generally involves even deeper specialisation (e.g. Law > Human Rights Law, CS > Machine Learning).
