What happened to studying?
- jleyank 16y agoIf people are getting what they want with x amount of effort, why do more? I've not read about massive waves of F's in university classes, so I assume they're not flunking out. Law and Med schools seem filled, we're swimming with STEM grad students (more than industry and academia can easily absorb) and I keep reading that other fields have 100 or more applicants for every opening. There may be problems with the system, but I doubt it's that students aren't doing enough work. Grades too high? Courses too easy? Maybe. Maybe, too, students are just better trained in pre-college? Or, maybe they're just smarter? Most people are skilled at getting by, and knowing what it takes to do so.
